Talking about transition at Our Special Families Village

The Village is a growing community where families find information and mutual support. Sharon is the gifted and passionate creator of the Village. In this one-minute welcome video, she explains what you’ll find there.

The Village offers a growing collection of interviews on a wide range of topics.

Our audio interview is over an hour long. And we don’t tippy-toe around difficult issues.
It’s a candid dialogue about practical responses to tough questions:

• how can parents negotiate their changing role during adolescence?
• how can we support teens to make informed choices and speak for themselves?
• what happens when there’s conflict on the IEP team?
• how can teens find out about career options?
• where do we start in the maze of adult agencies?
• how can teens learn what to do when they face roadblocks?

If you’re feeling some anxiety about these topics, you’re not alone.
