Charting the Life Course is a framework that was developed to help individuals with disabilities and
their families reflect about what they need to know, identify how to find or develop supports, and discover
what it takes to live self-actuated lives. Individuals and families may focus on their current situation
and stage of life but will also find it helpful to look ahead and begin to consider what they can do or
learn today that will help build an inclusive, productive life in the future. Celia will guide us through
our own portfolios to see how Charting the Life Course can work for us!

In this opening Session, Celia Schloemer  introduces
the Charting the LIfe Course.
