Transition Partnership Program
(High Schools)

Transition Partnership Programs (TPP) were developed in response to the 1986 Amendments to the Rehabilitation Act and the 1983 Amendments to the Education for the Handicapped Act. The TPPs are administered through third-party cooperative agreements with select Local Education Agencies (LEAs) and the Department of Rehabilitation (DOR). Statewide, there are approximately 104 TPPs through third-party cooperative agreements with LEAs. TPPs provide enhanced, coordinated vocational services including DOR Student Services and employment preparation, job development, and short-term support services to successfully transition students with disabilities into meaningful employment.
