ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
Leander ISD’s Special Programs Parent Liaison, Ashley Anderson, is joined by a few members of the Destination...Life Steering Committee, Denise Geiger, Will Renfro, and Candy Squilla for a conversation all about Destination…Life and why it matters for families. The Destination…Life Transition Conference is designed to support Texas families as they prepare their students with disabilities for life beyond high school. From early childhood through high school, families can connect with experts, explore resources, and gain practical guidance to help their students successfully transition into adulthood.
Ashley starts by asking the Steering Committee to share a little about themselves (00:41). Later, they have a conversation centered around:
- Origins of Destination...Life (1:19)
- What is a Transition Conference? (3:52)
- Four Life Domains (5:11)
- Contributing School Districts (7:35)
- Who is the Conference For? (9:49)
- Accessibility and Accommodations (11:00)
- What Sessions Should I Attend? (13:46)
