​Transition & Adulthood Programs

The goal of UCF Transition and Adulthood Programs to help individuals with developmental and learning disorders connect with gainful and meaningful employment opportunities as well as social/recreational opportunities in the community. We approach this objective from two angles: by preparing and practicing with our job seekers to help them develop employable skills and by educating and training businesses to successfully employee neurodiverse individuals. These programs are built around enhancing the social determinants of health, including education, economic stability, and social & community context.

​Employment First

Employment First is a national initiative that prioritizes employment in the general workforce as the first and preferred option for individuals with disabilities receiving assistance from publicly funded systems. In this effort, UCF works with businesses to develop industry-specific tools and accommodations that will help all employees be more successful in executing tasks, such as posting visual instructions, providing specialized equipment or adjusting work responsibilities or schedules. UCF also works closely with leadership staff to educate them about potential and expectations and provides coaching and support to ensure the best chance of success for employees with neurodiversity.
