The Florida Transition Services Policy Manual provides a comprehensive framework for delivering transition-focused supports to individuals with disabilities, aging adults, and youth moving between care settings or life stages across the state of Florida. This manual aligns with the regulatory requirements of the Florida Agency for Persons with Disabilities (APD), the Florida Department of Education (DOE), the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF), the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA), and the Department of Elder Affairs (DOEA). It also incorporates applicable federal guidelines under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Rehabilitation Act, and Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Waiver programs. The manual outlines policies and procedures related to eligibility, person-centered transition planning, interagency coordination, independent living skills development, employment and post-secondary readiness, housing navigation, discharge planning, documentation and reporting, participant rights, and quality assurance. Transition services may support youth moving from school to adult life, individuals shifting from institutional care to community-based living, or older adults navigating changes in support needs. Serving as both an operational guide and compliance resource, the Florida Transition Services Policy Manual ensures that providers deliver consistent, individualized, and goal-oriented services that promote successful, sustainable transitions and long-term community inclusion.
