The Illinois Center for Transition and Work is seeking submissions for the spring ICTW Symposium being held at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign on April 25 and 26. Presentations should focus on topics related to career development and transition from school to work for students with disabilities, with a special emphasis on students with significant disabilities.

Community Resource Mapping is a process used to identify resources in the community that support a student’s transition to work, independent living, and postsecondary education. In this workshop, participants will learn the community resource mapping process and how to use it to maximize transition planning and work-based learning experiences.
