Beyond Transition in the IDD Community: Where Would You Like to Visit

22 minutes

In this week's episode, we explore what happens after the transition years end—when adults with IDD in their 20s, 30s, and 40s are navigating work, friendships, and where to live. The transition period can feel uncertain. How do you avoid feeling stuck at home? How do you find meaningful work and real friendships? We discuss how to reframe the job search, build authentic connections, and create a life that feels right for you.

In this episode:

Why "Where would you like to visit?" is a better question than "Where do you want to work?"

The difference between independence and interdependence—and why being more independent can sometimes mean being more alone

Real stories of friendships

Creative approaches to living arrangements

How clubs, faith communities, and neighbors can lead to meaningful connections
