Adult Years: Age 22 and Older

As you graduate and leave school, you will continue to have a case manager— someone trained to assist you and help you determine your plans for the present and future. Your case manager will listen to your specific concerns based on your diagnosis and your needs, then create a program of service and support tailored just for you.

Depending on your individual diagnosis, whether you are still eligible for special education, your functioning, needs and on community resources, the following services may be available to you as determined by policies established by our Board. State law requires, however, that we explore alternate sources of funding before using Regional Center funds. Your IPP (Individual Program Plan) identifies services and plans necessary for you to achieve your agreed-upon objectives and what will be funded.
