Product Description: 

"Whose Future Is it?" is a research-based curriculum for adolescents to learn self-determination and self-awareness, and transition into adulthood. It includes activities to practice and discuss decision making skills, problem solving, negotiation, compromise and leadership, all of which enable students to take a meaningful role in planning for their future, showing students how to contribute to their IEP meetings. The curriculum culminates with students writing goals and taking an increasingly active part in their IEP meetings.
