Home | About Us | Contact Us | Links Transition One Stop Interdisciplinary Human Development Institute at the University of Kentucky Overview Welcome to Transition One Stop The purpose of this site is to provide information related to the many transitions we encounter across our life spans. It is designed as a resource for anyone going through, or helping someone with, a life change including people with disabilities who may have additional needs during times of transition. Nine key transition points were identified by the partners who built this site. They are listed on the left menu. Whereas each transition point involves its own specific challenges and considerations, there are also effective practices common to all. Therefore, within each transition point you will find content arranged according to a common outline, accessed by clicking on the transition point. This web page is a collaborative effort between the following partners: The Commission for Children with Special Health Care Needs (CCSHCN) The Kentucky Department of Education, Division of Exceptional Children, Special Education Cooperative Network (SECN) The Interdisciplinary Human Development Institute, University of Kentucky Kentucky Early Childhood Transition Project (KECTP) Kentucky Transition Signal (KTS) A resource is only as good as it is current!
