The Real-World Independence Toolkit-Click To Buy!

Practical worksheets and self-advocacy prompts to help your child build confidence for life after school. Confidence, one skill at a time.

Independence is built one skill at a time, with practice, patience, and support. This toolkit is for students about ages 12–21 and the grown-ups who support them. It covers the real-life skills that matter after high school: cooking, money, getting around, jobs, phone calls, and speaking up for yourself. Many pages are written for your teen to fill out, so they lead and you support.
