Transition Services

Transition services are intended to prepare young adults to move from the world of high school to the world of adulthood.  Moving into adulthood is both exciting and challenging for many youth. It can also be scary as decisions about the future can be tough to make.

At Beyond the Gray Area, our approach will be to listen to the person who is in transition.  A ‘person-centered approach’ means ensuring that everything we do is based upon what is important to a you from your own perspective. We will provide guidance for you to take the leadership position in planning for your future. Your involvement (and the involvement of people who love you) in your transition plan will contribute to making your plan a success.  As part of the team, we can ensure the important aspects of your interests and needs are at the forefront of each meeting.

As our name indicates, we are passionate about helping those young adults who are in the “gray area”; those who are not quite part of the “typical” (whatever that is!) crowd but are functional enough to be able to live independently, with or without support, who may attend college or vocational school, who desire to participate in social activities and have plans and dreams for the future.

Potential services to “close the gap” for those in the gray area:

• Executive function assessment
• Employment
• Building Self-Esteem
• Setting Goals
• Preparing for an the academic semester
• Time Management
• Social Activities

*The list of possibilities is endless. Once we meet with you, we will create a personalized plan to help you achieve your goals.
