Project SEARCH - Rice Lake WI Hybrid, Transition Program: unique, business-led, 9 month, school-to-work, vocational skills program for students and young adults with disabilities

Interns who successfully complete Project SEARCH see many lifelong benefits:

-Confidence in their abilities to learn job skills and become a self-advocate

-A guided transition from student life to working adult life with lifelong skills

-Opportunities to learn what they want (and realize what they don't want) in a prospective job

-Increased self-esteem, work ethic and relationship-building skills

-A brighter outlook to be a gainfully employed and independent adult

-Receive the tools needed to set goals and turn experiences into resume and job interview assets

Project SEARCH interns have an 88% success rate of procuring gainful employment after their internship is completed. For Project SEARCH to succeed, interns need a passion to improve their vocational skills and a desire to work. Individuals must apply for the program, and have appropriate hygiene, some communication skills and the determination to learn new employability skills.

Chatty Coworker - Conflict Resolution Skit

Interns prepped their setting, props and wrote their own scripts!

Audio went out at the end so feed was cut short - lines to finish are below:

Chatty Coworker looks shocked, big eyes, shuts mouth.

Coworker working says “You can stay and work here if you are quiet or you need to leave the office so I can get my work done.”

Chatty Coworker says “ OK I will stay in Moore quietly, sorry for talking so much.”

Both type and work quietly

FAST FACT FRIDAY!

For teens with special health care needs or disabilities, planning for adulthood starts before age 18. It can be helpful to think about transition planning in 3 steps:

🌱Early Transition | Ages 14–16
Begin planning, building skills, and exploring future goals.

🔄Active Transition | Ages 17–18
Prepare for changes in services, benefits, health care, employment, and other supports.

🌿Adulthood | Age 18+
Continue building independence, connections, and the support needed for adult life.

Starting early gives the entire family more time to learn, ask questions, and prepare for what comes next.

Our Resource Library is full of helpful information to support families along the way. We have linked our Integrated Transition Fact Sheet in the comments! 🔗
