Kids As Self Advocates(KASA) is, grass roots network of youth with disabilities and needs (and our friends), speaking out. We are leaders in our community, and we help spread helpful, positive information among our peers to increase knowledge around various issues. Those issues include: living with disabilities, health care transition issues, school, work and many more. www.fvkasa.org

The Healthy and Ready to Work National Center provides information and connections to health and transition expertise nationwide - from those in the know, doing the work and living it.  www.hrtw.org

National Center on Secondary Education and Transition: The National Center on Secondary Education and Transition (NCSET) coordinates national resources, offers technical assistance, and disseminates information related to secondary education and transition for youth with disabilities in order to create opportunities for youth to achieve successful futures. NCSET is headquartered at the Institute on Community Integration in the University of Minnesota's College of Education and Human Development. http://www.ncset.org/default.asp
