By following this recipe, the Institutes have consistently produced teens that emerge
from their weekend experiences with focused
action plans and renewed sense of self-confidence
and direction. The families have especially
remarked on the transformation occurring within
themselves and their young adults from the
exposure to deaf-blind role models and mentors.
As a result of the shared commitment to effort and resources, the states agreed
to develop a toolkit making it possible for any organization to successfully plan an
event aimed at assisting youth with disabilities to become more self-determines and
help their families to become effective advocates. The product is titled "The
Transition Toolkit."
Currently, the Southeastern states are again Team Spiriting and using "The
Transition ToolKit" for two upcoming 2015 Institutes, one in Alabama, June 11-14
th
,
and the other in Kentucky, June 19-21
st
. In this way, additional states can participate
with less cost and travel time.
