Students with disabilities that have an Individualized Educational Program (IEP) are required to have a statement of transition included in their IEP by the time the student is age 14, or earlier if the IEP team finds it appropriate. My Future My Plan encourages students and their families to be involved in the transition planning process and to start transition planning as early as possible. My Future My Plan also encourages students to take a lead role in planning the life they want after high school.
