title: School-to-work transition for youth who are both deaf and blind.
abstract: Transition, collaborative planning for desired adult opportunities, and implementation of objectives and activities can increase the postsecondary employment opportunities open to youth who are deaf and blind. Collaborative transition planning is characterized by family-professional partnerships in developing visionary personal profiles, systematic and transdisciplinary vocational preparation in community-based settings, and infusion of related services within educational programs.
