There is a birthday nobody prepares you for. The paperwork stops. The meetings stop. The team that surrounded your family for eighteen years is simply not there anymore, and nobody calls to tell you what happens next.
That is the season I work in.
If your young adult has aged out of IDEA services, you are not behind and you have not missed something you were supposed to know. There was no handoff. Almost no advocate serves this stage, so most families find nothing when they go looking. You found something.
Their days, their words.
Every plan here starts with your young adult, not with a package. We look at what they want their days to hold, and then we work backward to the barriers standing in front of it and start clearing them.
That usually touches some mix of the following, in whatever order your family needs it:
Built for one family at a time.
This one is fully custom, built in the spirit of college coaching. We start with an upfront setup to build the plan together, and then we move into a steady monthly rhythm to carry it out. It flexes when your family needs it to, and it can serve more than the transition season alone.
An upfront setup where your young adult names what they want their days to hold, and we map the barriers standing in front of it.
Steady, ongoing support to carry the plan out, adjusting as things shift, because they will.
It can serve more than the transition season alone, and it moves when your family needs it to move.
Because every situation here is genuinely different, we settle the details on a call rather than fitting your young adult into a fixed package.
The federal law that guaranteed services runs out. The advocacy field organized itself around school age children, which makes sense, and it means the years right after are quiet ground. Families in this season have told me they felt dropped.
Your young adult still belongs. In work, in community, in a full life. That belonging did not expire on a birthday, and it was never something anyone granted in the first place. What changed is that the structure around it disappeared, so the work now is rebuilding structure, together.
That belonging did not expire on a birthday.
Families whose young adult has aged out of IDEA services, or is about to, and who want someone beside them who knows what exists on the other side. Ages 21 to 25 is the heart of it, and I work past 25 when a family needs it.
No template, no package.
Transition support is quoted per family, because your young adult's plan should be theirs and not a template. Tell me where things stand and what you are hoping for, and we will build the shape of it together.
Start a conversationPricing on every other SOAR service is published openly. Transition stays a custom quote because the work is genuinely custom, and you will have real numbers before you commit to anything.
