This committee was established in 2008 as a result of KidsAbility’s “Moving On Project” which surveyed current and past clients and their families regarding their needs for support in preparing for the transition to adult living. It includes participation from KidsAbility, community agencies who provide service to adults, the two local school boards, and former clients of KidsAbility who have made a "successful" transition to adult living.
It’s objectives are:
- To foster the development of early and on-going planning for the transition to adulthood.
- To bring together community, agencies, youth with disabilities and their family members to share and exchange information regarding community resources available in Waterloo Region and best practices for transition
- To support youth and families in early linkage with the adult service sector.
