Transition Partnership Program is an interagency vocational program federally funded by the California State Department of Rehabilitation (DOR) in cooperation with the Riverside County Office of Education, and local high schools across the county.  More than 600 students from participating school districts join the program each year. The goal of TPP is to assist students with disabilities in overcoming challenges in their transition from high school to further education/training and/or to gain meaningful employment.

TPP is a two-semester course.  Teachers, RCOE Staff, and DOR Counselors provide lessons and activities that are designed to prepare students for employment. 

Transition Partnership Program classes provide:

• Job Exploration Counseling
• Work-based Learning Experiences
• Work Readiness Training
• Self-Advocacy Training

Support, for some students, continues after high school and may include job placement assistance and vocational training or financial assistance to purchase job-required tools and/or uniforms.  A transportation allowance is also available based on eligibility and need.  

For further information contact your local high school counselor or call RCOE.
