Youth Transition Training

Supporting the Journey from School to Independence

Many young adults with disabilities face unique challenges as they transition out of the school system and into adulthood. The Center for Independent Living in Central Florida is here to bridge that gap. Our Youth Transition Program supports students ages 14–22 who are currently enrolled in school as they prepare for life after graduation. Whether their next step is higher education, vocational training, or employment, we offer a holistic, personalized approach to help them build a meaningful future.

Our Transition Services Include:

  • Internship and employment placement

  • Work-based learning and hands-on training

  • Job readiness workshops

  • Career exploration and planning

  • Advocacy and self-empowerment training

  • Resume writing and interview preparation

  • Job shadowing opportunities

We also proudly offer transition services for out-of-school youth up to age 24, providing continued support for those who need it most.
