Register for Strengthening Transition Outcomes: The Administrator's Role in Pre-ETS Implementation

Event Information
While transition specialists coordinate day-to-day services, school administrators hold the key to removing barriers and creating real access. Join speakers Diara Seruby, Dawn Mosley, and Patti Hodge as they outline actionable strategies from a three-year partnership between VCU and the Virginia Department for Aging and Rehabilitative Services (DARS). Learn how school leaders can easily integrate Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS) into existing schedules, coordinate staff, engage families, and bridge the gap between high school and competitive employment.

Key Takeaways:

  • How to embed Pre-ETS into school schedules without sacrificing core academic instruction.
  • Practical strategies to resolve transportation, scheduling, and communication barriers.
  • Ways to leverage community events and family networks to expand service reach.
