Transition
UM Rural Institute 2016 2
0 The goal of transition is that young people will transition as seamlessly as possible to rich, meaningful adult lives with the supports in place for them to be successful.
![Page 3: What’s the Buzz about Inclusion?transition.ruralinstitute.umt.edu/www/wp-content/... · boyfriend, and watch movies like Deadpool. Don't judge - I like drawing creepy things! Well,](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042406/5f1f88b871dd1355820ffa7b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Transition to ????
0 What will the young person’s day look like when they no longer go to school?
0 Will they work?
0 Where will they live?
0 What will they do for fun?
0 Will their day be full?
0 Who will provide supports that the school and parents provided before?

Preparing for a Smooth (ish) Transition
0 Have a clear vision of the outcome
0 Support the person to self-manage and initiate as much as possible
0 Understand their ongoing support needs
0 Inventory existing supports available
0 Connect to services
0 Creatively blend support to meet needs
0 Offer opportunities for exposure and experience…and even failure
0 Most of all, have HIGH EXPECTATIONS

Relationships

Relationships
0 Relationships are important.
0 When you’re in high school you see your friends every day.
0 You go to classes together, you eat lunch together and you hang out together.

After Graduation…
0 But after graduation, you don’t see your friends every day.
0 Some may move away. Job schedules may conflict or you may not be able to get around to see them.
0 It can get pretty lonely.
0 So it’s important to maintain relationships. It’s easy to lose contact.

There are lots of ways to help keep your relationships going.

Use the Phone
0 One thing that I have done is call friends and talk to them on the phone.
0 I went to Pittsburg, Pennsylvania for a couple of months over a year ago. I made friends there.
0 We agreed to stay in contact through phone calls since we live so far apart.
0 We have also sent each other gifts during holidays.
0 Visiting on the phone has kept us close.

Or whatever works for you…
0 Some of you may use e-mails, texts or whatever works best for you.
0 If you have made some friends at a conference, you can maintain those friendships, too. It makes coming to future conferences even more fun, knowing you’ll see those friends again.

How about mail?
0 How many of you like getting a birthday card from a friend in the mail? I know I really like that. One thing great about this is you can look at it whenever you want or need to. It helps me at times when I may be feeling lonely or sad.
0 So, when YOU are the one sending the letter or card, your friend is going to feel the same way.

Hanging Out
0 Another way of maintaining or building friendships is by inviting friends to hang out with you at your home, or go hang with them at their house.
0 I love WWE. I have friends that like it too. We plan monthly parties to get together to watch! We have a blast!

Don’t Forget Your Family
0 If some of you will be moving out of your family’s house, you may think that’s great…which it is…but remember to maintain that relationship, too.
0 Your family was there for you first, and will be there for you. Build that relationship by showing and telling them how much you love and care about them. From now until forever.

Health Care
0 When someone says “Health Care”… usually we think about going to the doctor.
0 But that is only a part of it.
0 I would like to talk a few minutes about the health care that you can do yourself. I am talking about exercise.

Exercise?!?
0 Some people don’t even like the word exercise. I think I may have felt this way too a while ago.
0 Exercise isn’t just doing a bunch of “jumping jacks” or running for miles, although it could be, if you like doing that sort of thing.
UM Rural Institute 2016 43

Exercise can be fun!
0 You can exercise in really fun ways. Often we may not even think of it as exercise.
0 For example, just dancing to your favorite music in your home is good for you.
0 Jammin’ in your car is great, even if other drivers may wonder what you’re doing…do it anyway.

Get Creative
0 Get creative when you get together with friends.
0 Instead of sitting around playing video games or whatever, try a walking scavenger hunt or go to a playground…they aren’t just for kids. You could even bring a kid along. The exercise is good for them too.

Walk…
0 When you go shopping, don’t spend time looking for the closest place to park. Park further out and get the benefit of those extra few steps. I’ve heard my mom tell my dad that this will also get less scratches on your car.

Walk with a Friend
0 I personally have a dog that needs to take walks. This makes my dog happy and helps me too.
0 If you don’t have a dog you can offer to walk a neighbor’s.

Be Consistent
0 I have benefited so much from consistent exercise. I lost weight and have been able to participate in things I wasn’t able to experience before.
0 One of my most recent accomplishments has been climbing cliffs.
0 My last annual check-up had my doctor saying I had some of the best blood work he ever has seen. I know it is because I made the decision to be healthy through exercise and fun activities.

consistently do it.

What Trade Do I Do?
I’m a bricklayer. I work on building walls; work
with tile, stone, cement, and marble; and do
concrete work.
