CT Student Transition Resources - Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing
  • About Us
  • Student Resources
The  Student Transition Online Resource was created collaboratively by professionals from the Connecticut Department of Education, Bureau of Special Education, Department of Rehabilitation Services,  Capital Region Education Council / Soundbridge, and the American School for the Deaf. 

This site is for students who are deaf or hard of hearing and serves as a one-stop shop for locating resources in Connecticut and transition resources in general.   

This site is updated annually and freely available to students, teachers, and service providers.  
​
Special thanks to Maura McGuire, Capital Region Education Council/Soundbridge Academy, and Sheri Romblad, PATH/Family Voices of Connecticut, who served on the original committee for this initiative.  In addition, a special thanks to Post Secondary Education Programs Network (PEPNET 2), for providing seed funding for this online resource.
