Turning 18 in VA: What Individuals at EVERY AGE need to know (PEATC & VDOE) (Chesapeake - Region 2)
This is a completed event.
Description:
*This workshop is designed for parents of children with disabilities of ALL ages and will provide many practical tidbits to think about NOW in order to prepare for life after high school.**
Turning 18 is a big deal for all individuals. An 18-year-old is legally considered an adult in Virginia. Therefore, when your child turns 18, he/she is the person that makes legal, financial, medical, and educational decisions in his/her life. For some individuals with disabilities, this will not be an issue. Others may need support. This workshop will share basic information about things that need to be considered as your loved one turns 18.
This event is hosted by the Chesapeake SEAC and Chesapeake Therapeutic Parks and Recreation.
