Show Notes

Our School to Adult Life Transition project aims to identify positive pathways for young people with disability as they move from school to adult life. In this episode, we chat to two young adults who are exercising choice and control at home, study, work and in their communities. First up we talk to 22 year old Emily, who is well on her way to becoming a successful artist and cartoonist, followed by 20-year-old clothing designer Isaiah from Ipswich, who is Deaf and nonverbal and communicates via an AUSLAN interpreter.
