Transition Discoveries: Participatory Action Research to Design Pathways to Success
Kester, Joan; Flanagan, Matthew F.; Stella, Julie
Career Development and Transition for Exceptional Individuals, v45 n1 p31-43 Feb 2022
A multiyear critical participatory action research study was conducted with a total of 503 youth and young adults with disabilities (ages 14-25), family members, and transition stakeholders across the U.S. commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Youth and young adults with disabilities, families, and stakeholders served as participant researchers who collaborated in operationalizing post-school outcomes and the high-quality transition practices, resources, services, and supports that contribute to achieving them. As a result of this study, the Transition Discoveries Quality Indicator Framework was developed. We provide examples of how the content of this framework can be used to design experiences for youth and families to learn about transition planning, programs, and services. Guidelines for ecologically relevant research and implications for practice in secondary transition are provided.
