Colleagues,
Please mark your calendars and join us on Thursday, August 13, 2020 at 3:30
Pacific Time for our next Transition Forum Teleconference call. The focus of
the Transition Forum Teleconference is to bring together individuals and foster
meaningful and constructive discussion on providing best practices for
transition services, programming for blind and low vision and multi disabled
blind youth and young adults. To that end, the monthly calls focus on a variety
of WIOA topics, the rehabilitation process, pre employment transition services
and more.
Our August 13 call will have a presentation from CalABLE as well as hearing
from participating agencies and community partners on happenings with recent
summer and upcoming autumn virtual programming.
CalABLE supplied us with the following info in advance of our August 13 virtual
gathering.
