Way to go to our Transition 99 students! They practiced interviewing with local employers to perfect their skills. Ask our local business partners at buff.ly/3oCFLh2, and they will tell you how valuable these employees are and what an impact they can make! #99learns

Friday mornings are pretty quiet at the Transition Center. That's because each @Transition205 student is accessing their community at job sites, @CollegeDuPage or other community resources aligned w/ their individualized postschool outcomes. #OutcomeOriented #CommunityIntegration
