The Community Support Network is pleased once again to offer our annual conference on post-secondary transition covering topics ranging from employment options, inclusive college programs, social and recreational programs, systems navigation, self-advocacy, and policy issues with several breakout tracks to choose from.
This year's threads include:
For Self-Advocates: Sessions focused on issues for individuals with disabilities
Self Help: Strategies and ideas to cope with stress and wellness ideas
Self Determination: Strategies to promote responsibility and independence
Inclusive Higher Education: Information and promising practices in college programs for students with I/DD

For School Administrators: Best practices to build capacity for inclusive transition supports and services. Learn from experts and each other.
Introduction to Everything: Beginners guide for families just starting transition planning

In order to be sensitive to work, family commitments, and 'zoom fatigue' the conference will take place over three days.
