Transition Planning Workshop Series for Parents of Teens: January 17th. Transition Planning 101 for Teens with Aspergers - Terri McLaughlin from the Federation for Children with Special Needs will present this workshop from 7:00 - 9:30 pm on Jan. 17th at AANE located at 85 Main Street, Suite 101, in Watertown. Terri will discuss transition planning - deciding how best to use the high school years in order to ensure that your teen emerges at graduation as well prepared as possible to lead a fulfilling, independent life. This is a complex process crammed into a very short window of opportunity. Transition goals and services should be written into the IEP (Individualized Education Plan) when a student is 15 years old, so Team discussions should begin at age 14. Terri's expertise can help you and your son or daughter make the best use of the time and resources available. To register call Stephanie at (617) 393-3824 or send e-mail to Stephanie.Loo@aane.org.
