Planning Resources
Building Bridges helps young people (17 to 21 years of age) with an intellectual challenge to plan for the transition from high school to life in their community after graduation.
We believe in the successful future of all youth and, to assist the young people involved with Building Bridges, we have developed BUILDING MY BRIDGES FROM SCHOOL TO ADULT LIFE - A Transition Planning Handbook. We created this resource with the hope that the information, planning steps and worksheets offered in it will help young people to live with dignity and respect in their communities.
To read the 'Information for Parents and Caregivers' section of this handbook, click here. (You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view these documents.)

The complete Building Bridges Transition Planning Handbook is currently available in hard copy (i.e., a paper manual). We also hope to have it available soon on CD.
If you'd like a copy of the handbook, please send us an email with the details of your request. You will be contacted as soon as possible.
There may be a small charge to cover the costs of printing and postage.
