south london local authority hubtransition support programme The Aiming High Report (May 2007) acknowledged that despite some examples of good practice, current transition support for disabled young people is variable. The report introduced a transition support programme to help disabled young people and their families to benefit from improved service delivery to help them overcome the many challenges in the critical transition to adulthood. The National Strategies and the SEN Hub are working in partnership with the Children's Social Care Improvement Partnership - Children and Families Team (CSIP) and the central coordinating body (National Transition Support Team) which is led by the Council for Disabled Children. The aim is to contribute to regional teams to support and challenge LAs and PCTs as they implement best practice approaches to the transition of young adults with disabilities to the workplace, further education, higher education, training and / or ongoing community care and support.
