This handbook provides information for self-advocates, parents, and guardians of people with a disability transitioning to adulthood. Supportive services and legal arrangements are only part of a person’s transition to adulthood. Relationships, school, and housing involve additional perspectives that require coordination and
understanding.
The American Network of Community Options and Resources created a report covering the ongoing staffing shortage and its effect on services provided to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Presented by certified trainers with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) for people with IDD, this Peer-to-Peer training empowers participants to create their own person-centered outcome statements and action steps. It is limited to groups of 8 participants and 3 volunteers, and takes place at The Arc House (1806 Haltom Rd., Haltom City, TX
76117).
This guide, created by the New York City Mayor’s Office for People with Disabilities, assists in creating social media content that is accessible to those who would be otherwise left out of the experience and information.
Currently many websites and tools are developed with accessibility barriers that make them difficult or impossible for some people to use. When websites and web tools are properly designed and coded, they can be accessible to all.
