The Way to Work provides a practical, research-based framework for secondary special education and transition professionals to develop, monitor, and support successful work experiences necessary for effective school-to-work transition for youth with disabilities. The book shows how work should and can be more than an afterthought to curriculum. It stresses that work is one of the essential features of contextual learning and helps professionals make post-school employment the rule rather than the exception for youth with disabilities. Each chapter contains case examples, and most chapters also feature reproducible forms and checklists.
