Transition plans
There are all kinds of transition plans. So many that it would be impossible to talk about all of them. If you have a question, please ask and we’ll talk about it. A transition can be from one place to another, from one activity to another, from one program to another and from one life stage to another. They sometimes cover; gathering information, looking at options, and a list of who will do what when. For a transition from one activity to another or from one place to another, it would depend on how difficult the transition may be for the individual. This may include a regular predictable schedule, cues to indicate that the transition is coming up (music can be helpful for this as noted in: http://www.collaboration.me.uk/Stress_Reduction.php see letter m., or charts can also be used), a very specific and safe process for the transition and something to relax into the transition. For some individuals, environmental structure can both be very important and helpful. It just depends on the needs of the individual.
