#073: How Chloe left the high school transitions program and gained paid employment


Listen Later

To help you see more ordinary life possibilities for your loved ones with developmental disabilities, I will share stories of families working with their loved ones to take steps forward to create an Awesome Ordinary Life.

Chloe was in a high school transition program for students with disabilities in her final years of high school.

She became increasingly frustrated by the lack of opportunity the transition program provided and felt like it was holding her back.

Chloe, supported by her mom, Laura, decided to leave the support of the transition program and pursue paid employment.

Today, Chloe is gainfully employed, building meaningful relationships with peers at work, and enjoying her interests in ordinary places in the community.
