STAGE (Supportive Transition Adult Group)
STAGE is a transition service for young adults that facilitates growth and independence in educational, vocational and social skills after completing high school.
This program is designed for individuals with disabilities who want to improve academic, work and life skills and will transition out of the service within 1-4 years to access other educational or employment related services and opportunities. This service is best suited to those who wish to further their independence through community-based activities and do not require one to one assistance.
STAGE offers a varied schedule based on the goals of the participants:
- Functional academics (Smart Readers, Math 2 Go, Money Skills )
- Skill development (bus skills, office skills, basic computer skills)
- Work skill training through community volunteering
- Employment exploration through Informational interviews and tours with local businesses and services
