85% have a secondary degree but don't have a job or are working below their skill level. Ruth Ann Sikora stated a voice needed to be addressed is the individuals that are post- secondary whose needs were not met in transition they may have gone through college. Paula felt there should be a real push at the administrative level. Training for teachers was just approved for 3 years, so it's unlikely we will have any input at this time. In the EEOPD we don't have transitional specialists in those meetings, we should be sure that all teachers be trained in transition.IDHS: DDD Communications (state.il.us) All collaborations are important in the next month's going forward.Sign up for the division DD comments and it is going live today.

#Carri burke isnap update
Looking at how we can update this and what kind of changes to get this out to educators and families. What we are still finding is a lot of confusion on how the process works. In 2013 a parent group put together a flowchart for services. With everything going on we decided this was not an area we want to pursue at this time. Michigan stated it did not help them as much as anticipated, it just prolonged the situation- the schools ended up as mini adult ed programs. The ATF Transition subcommittee held a discussion on extension to age 26, talked to Michigan where they have this in place.We are working with EEOPD transition committee.Illinois Department of Human Services Autism Taskforce Meeting MinutesĬommissioner, DuPage Sounty Board, Parent please mute all phones when you are not speaking.
