CLEE Self-Advocacy Curriculum Helps Nashville Students

CLEE Self-Advocacy Curriculum Helps Nashville Students

February 28, 2014

Making a seamless transition from high school to post-secondary education, employment, vocational training, or independent living can be difficult for students with disabilities.

CLEE’s Self-Advocacy Curriculum and support services can assist students in making a successful transition from high school to career or college.

Recently, Ms. Jones-Sanders and her students at Hunter’s Lane High School in Nashville have been working with CLEE staff Melvin Jackson using CLEE’s Self-Advocacy Curriculum.

Ms. Jones-Sanders took advantage of CLEE’s intensive coaching to prepare all her students for a successful transition. Mock interviews, resume writing, and job application activities, in particular, really helped two of her students prepare for jobs they have arranged at exit this May.

For more about the Curriculum check out the  CLEE Self-Advocacy Flyer
