Transition Improvement Grant

The Transition Improvement Grant has developed and revised several online tools to assist educators in providing instruction in self-advocacy to students with IEPs. Students who are able to self-advocate for their rights, and abilities are more successful with their post school goals as they are able to ask for accommodations on jobs and in college settings.

The Wisconsin Transition Improvement Grant (TIG) welcomes you to “Speak Up” Becoming a Self-Advocate!! This is a revision of the long standing self-advocacy curriculum: “On Becoming a Self-Advocate”.

The Transition Improvement Grant (TIG) has created 15 lesson plan starters intended to be used by teachers to support self-direction with the Wisconsin Postsecondary Transition Plan (PTP). These lessons are aligned with the Wisconsin Postsecondary Transition Plan (PTP) application and were designed to be used by educators to support self-directed transition planning and instruction.

The purpose of this guide is to assist students in developing self-confidence.

This document was created to help inform your students about the CCR IEP forms and process in a student friendly way. You can use this document to support pre planning for a student’s CCR IEP meeting and as a way for the student to understand their CCR IEP.

The Transition Improvement Grant has designed a transition app to increase self-direction and self-advocacy for all Wisconsin youth in the transition planning process.  We are excited for youth, schools, families, and agencies to begin using this application! This app is designed to help Wisconsin students and family members participate in the transition planning process.
