SESSION INFO: « Back to all events
Do you have a youth who lives with extra support needs and will be transitioning out of high school soon?
Please join the Family Support Institute and special guest speakers Julie Thiele and Darlene Issac Navigators from STADD (Services to Adults with Development Disabilities) on our upcoming zoom presentation.
STADD Navigators coordinate with government and community-based agencies so that young people have the support of collaborative teams during their transition to adulthood. Navigators can assist in connecting youth and families to various resources in their community/province. A Navigator helps individuals achieve their goals by connecting them to the services that can support a positive transition into adulthood.

Did you have a great experience with FSI? Please let us know!
As a provincial organization FSI acknowledges that our work spans across all of the traditional, ancestral, and unceded Indigenous territories in BC. Therefore, we respectfully honour all First Nations, Inuit and Métis people, as well as their ancestors, who have lived here and cared for these lands. It is with gratitude that we can live, learn and do our work in the province now known as British Columbia.
