What are agencies in schools?

Organizations and people who are part of your transition team and support your goals for life after high school. Ideally, agency personnel in schools provide…

  • An inviting and welcoming atmosphere at your school.
  • A place for you to work and meet at your school.
  • Trusting and good relationships, focused on YOU, to meet you where you are in life.
  • Support during your IEP meetings and other transition planning meetings.
  • Opportunities to help you learn and grow.
