Families
Like all young adults, students with disabilities require support as they leave school and enter the adult world. For students with disabilities, there are many agencies and organizations that provide support and services. Oftentimes, these services can be difficult to navigate. Jeffco Transition Services has provided a list of suggested resources and agencies for families to connect with.
Parents and families play an important role in the success of their students’ postsecondary goals by maintaining high expectations, focusing on independence, taking an active role in transition planning, learning to access and navigate services and connecting with community agencies during this important transition to adulthood.
Recommended Agencies
Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR)
DVR services are available to young adults choosing to participate beginning at age 15. Services at this time focus on developing important employment skills that will lay a foundation for success after leaving school.
Developmental Disability Resource Center (DDRC)
DDRC’s mission is to create opportunities for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families to participate fully in the community.
RTD Access-a-Ride
Transition students rely on public transportation. Access-a-ride offers individuals with disabilities free access to transportation. Access-a-Ride is RTD’s ADA complementary paratransit service. It is a shared-ride service intended for those who cannot use regular fixed-route bus/light rail service due to a disability.
Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
SSI provides monthly payments to people with disabilities and older adults who have little or no income or resources.
Medicaid
Health First Colorado is public health insurance for Coloradans who qualify. Medicaid is funded jointly by the federal government and Colorado state government and is administered by the Department of Health Care Policy and Financing. Each state manages its own Medicaid program differently.
