The Practices are used to teach a variety of skills, such as those associated with employment, daily living, communication, academics, job-routines and tasks, independence, and workplace behavior. Families, youth, providers and others can continue use of the practices in non-instructional settings such as work sites, community environments, social settings, etc.
The Predictors of Post School Success provide research-based strategies useful for educators and adult service professionals to equip youth with the skills and resources needed for adult living and working in the community. Families and youth can gain information to share with Team members about possible programs and services to build community capacity and investment in serving transition youth. Multi agency Teams can plan for engaging youth in Predictor activities that begin while the youth is still in school and continue into adulthood.
