McTransitions.org is a grassroots organization and promotes:
• Networking together to support our families and adult children with disabilities to the best they can be.
• More opportunities in education that lead to careers as employment is important for independence.
• Aim for what is needed to make individuals happy and productive citizens, not just the minimum to help them out of crisis situations.
• Affordable housing and resources so that those with disabilities can be as independent as possible in the community.
• Opportunities for adults with disabilities to develop life skills that help them live independently.
• Self-advocacy for adults with disabilities
