California Department of Developmental Services through its contract with WestEd, will launch a series of family surveys aimed to gather and understand the transition and inclusion experiences of children ages 3-11 years old who receive regional center services. The information gathered from the surveys will assist the Department in identifying priorities for promoting a smoother transition process for young and pre-adolescent children and enhancing access to inclusive opportunities across different settings.

During January through March 2025, WestEd, will gather input via surveys from families to understand their real-life experiences with transitions and inclusion across different aspects of a child’s life, including education, relationships, health and wellness, and other life activities. The surveys can be accessed on the School Age Transition and Inclusion Support for Families and Youth (SATISFY) project webpage.
