The transition to adult life creates big changes in the lives of young people with exceptional needs and their families.  Transition planning can help with the stress these changes can bring.  This guide includes information to assist families in participating in transition planning for their son or daughter. It is intended for parents, guardians, foster parents and caregivers.

The Vulnerable Persons’ Commissioner is appointed under Part 4, Substitute Decision Making of The Vulnerable Persons Living with a Mental Disability Act (the Act).  The mandate of the Office of the Vulnerable Persons’ Commissioner is to implement the substitute decision making provisions of the Act.  In doing so, our goal is to protect the decision-making rights of vulnerable persons through policies and procedures.
