AI Summary
This bill requires that high school students with disabilities who have a "504" plan, which is a plan under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 that prohibits discrimination based on disability in programs receiving federal funding, receive the same transition planning as students with an individualized education program (IEP). Transition planning is a coordinated set of activities designed to help students with disabilities move from school to post-school life, including further education, employment, and community participation, and this bill ensures that students with 504 plans will also benefit from this structured preparation for adulthood, with the changes taking effect immediately upon passage.
