The 18-21 year old Transition Program At Denver Public Schools was designed to help young adults with disabilities prepare for independence. The program supports their post-secondary education, offers competitive integrated employment, and helps participants create independent living readiness goals in a community setting.
The 2020 Bond-funded life skills classroom at North High School was an investment in the program. The rooms include full kitchens, washer/dryer, fully accessible bathrooms with showers, new technology and new furniture.
"I can tell you Denver voters: this is exactly what needs to be happening to improve the experiences and outcomes for our students," -- Amy Swisher, Senior Manager of Special Education at Denver Public Schools
