About Focus Beyond Transition Services (opens in new window/tab)

Focus Beyond Transition Services is a special education program that works with young adults ages 18 to 22 who have unmet special education needs. The program offers on-site seminars and community-based activities and experiences in which students have the opportunity to explore their employment, post-secondary, and independent living skills. Our goal is to increase independence at an individual level, so that the young adults with whom we work can be active members of their community.

Programming

At Focus Beyond, we take seriously our responsibility to provide individualized education and experiences for our students ages 18 to 22. Our programming includes a multitude of on-site and community-based experiences for learning. We also provide work-based learning experiences for high school students through our STEPS program.
