Transition

What is Transition?

Transition services are crucial in supporting students as they plan for post-school goals. Transition plans assist students in meeting their post-school goals, such as gainful employment, post-secondary education or training, and independent living. Transition plans are designed to meet individual needs as students progress through school. 

What is the Owasso Area Transition Team?

The Owasso Area Transition Team is comprised of members from the Department of Rehabilitative Services, Tulsa Technology Center, Owasso Schools, and Collinsville Schools. Our goal is to identify and implement ways to meet the transition needs of students and act as a resource for other Transition Teams who are striving towards the same goal.           

About our Community Resource and Transition Fair

The Owasso Area Community Resource and Transition Fair is an annual event sponsored by the Owasso Area Transition Team.  During the Community Resource and Transition Fair, representatives from various agencies are available to meet with families and answer questions about the programs and services available in our community. 

The participating agencies provide a wide array of services, including Post Secondary Educational Opportunities, Services available to college-bound students with disabilities, Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment Services, Social and Recreational Programs, and Independent Living Options. 

We also have agencies available to answer your questions about financial assistance programs, mental health resources, and other community programs.

Department of Rehabilitation Services

The purpose of Vocational Rehabilitation Services is to help eligible individuals with disabilities prepare for work and become gainfully employed. The services a person receives are determined by the person's Individualized Plan for Employment (IPE). This plan outlines a person's employment goal and services that are needed to enable the person to achieve successful employment.
