Its important to begin this process early to allow time for planning the services and support needed in the future. Planning should begin at age 14 or younger. * Transition from special education services and its entitlements is complicated. * For students with severe disabilities and complex needs it will take time to put post-school services and supports in place. * Some students will likely be using the services of many agencies and time will be needed to figure out who can do what and who will pay for what.
