Partners in Education: Transition Mini Conference

 As we observe Veterans Day and honor all those who have served our country, past and present, Americans spent their day at home, watching TV, doing chores, and planning their weekend. Yet some youth spent time as part of the SPAN Youth Chat! Yesterday's chat was short, but we promoted the Partners In Education: Transition Mini-Conference, Saturday, 11/14 at 10 AM - 12 PM. It will feature a Youth Track (ages 14-21) that will speak on Youth Leadership Development, Building Youth Self-Advocacy Skills, and Leading Your IEP Meeting. 

Here is a run-through on How To Register:

  1. Select register on the Eventbrite page (link below resources at the end of the blog post). Select Youth Admission ticket (adult tickets are sold out).
  2. Fill out contact information.

When people with similar life experiences support each other, it can make a big difference. It helps you feel less alone, gives you hope, and often brings helpful advice that comes from real experience. Whether it’s dealing with a disability, mental health, or big life changes, support from someone who “gets it” can truly change your life.
