A New Way of Thinking

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

  • Self-accepting attitudes
  • Combatting negative thinking and thinking positively
  • Rediscovering yourself
  • Gaining a better understanding of your disability
  • Making choices related to interests
  • Gaining self-advocacy and develop self-determination skills—all of which help create effective Transition Planning.
