Transitioning to Adulthood as a Young Person with an Intellectual Disability: Two Case Studies of Mothers’ Perceptions
Open accessAbstract
Making the transition from high school to adult life is a challenging process for youth with Intellectual Disabilities (ID). Complicated policies, fragmented systems, and uncoordinated services contribute to the problem. Youth with ID need ongoing support to transition successfully, and this support often comes from their parents. The current article presents the findings from two case studies that examined mothers’ perceptions of the process of supporting their children with ID through transition from high school to adulthood. Factors that supported and hindered successful transition, as well as supports or resources that mothers wished they had during transition are presented.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
