Families and students are invited to learn more about the many pathways available after high school through two upcoming opportunities designed to support successful transitions to adulthood.
Webinar: The Path to College for Students Who Learn Differently
Families can also join Pathlitics for a live webinar on Wednesday, February 25, from 7:00–8:00 PM ET focused on the transition from high school to college. This conversation-based session features transition specialist Kelley Challen, a parent, and a college student sharing real-life experiences and practical guidance. Topics include assessing readiness beyond academics, understanding how supports change in college, documentation for accommodations, building self-advocacy skills, and choosing colleges with strong support systems. A recording will be available for all who register.
These events offer valuable information, practical strategies, and connections to help students and families plan for a successful and meaningful future after high school. Registration information for both opportunities is available below.
Inclusive Post-High School Resource Fair
Join the Arc Alliance, Temple University, and the office of PA State Representative Joe Webster for a FREE Inclusive Post-High School Resource Fair on Saturday, March 28, from 1:00–4:00 PM at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks, PA. This community event connects students with disabilities and their families to a wide range of resources, including higher education, employment and internship opportunities, community and in-home supports, social and recreational options, legal and financial planning, and residential programs. The goal is to help families explore and access the many possibilities available for life after high school.
