Virginia’s NEXT STEPS Transition Program for Families, Youth, and Professionals
MOVIN' ON UP This event is designed for rising 8th and 9th graders with disAbilities who have an interest in attending a four year college or university program. The students will spend the day at James Madison University learning about college life from successful college students with disAbilities. Students will learn what self-advocacy skills are necessary to be successful in high school and college, participate in disAbility awareness activities, attend a typical college class, explore a typical college campus, eat in the dining hall, and have the opportunity to ask questions to a panel of successful high school and college students with disAbilities. There will be a parent information session in the morning presented by the Office of Disability Services at James Madison University.
Adults are welcome to return for the high school and college panel.
