Abstract

This qualitative research study examines the transition of adolescents with autism from high school to adult vocational service providers. The article looks at the current, ongoing transition of a high school senior and also analyzes the transitions made by three previous graduates. In so doing, it allows for a look inside three separate vocational service providers, revealing both areas of strength in the transition process across these providers and the school and areas in need of improvement. © 2003, Sage Publications.
