What are transition services?

Transition services are activities and supports that help students with disabilities access opportunities in independent living, education and training, employment, and recreation and leisure. In Texas, these services start no later than the age of 14, and are updated annually. Regardless of a student’s disability, transition planning is necessary to prepare students for life after their time at Austin ISD. Transition services and activities take the student’s strengths, preferences, interests, and needs into consideration to prepare them for adulthood.
