Show full summary
  • Families and students: Gives families and high schools a structured program to help students with disabilities plan for life after high school and monitor progress toward those plans.
  • Educators and schools: Funds educator training and expands the program’s reach. As of January 2025, 61 educators began assisting 1,600 high school students in 62 high schools across 13 local educational agencies.
  • Federal oversight and contracting: Forces a quick recompetition and treats the award as if it had not previously been made, and it prevents the contract from being canceled without congressional approval, which preserves continuity for participating schools and staff.
