STEP is collaborating with the Tennessee Department of Education and Lipscomb University's IDEAL Program to provide a Special Education Transition Academy.

This event is the place for students, parents, teachers, and service providers to find answers to their questions, make connections, and receive tools to use that will help ensure students exit high school prepared to live, work, and participate fully in their community!

Our goal is to provide you with the tools and information necessary to empower young adults with disabilities to successfully transition from high school to adulthood.

The information and resources that will be provided at this event will help folks of all abilities lead more successful and independent adult lives.
