CMHP 204 - Interdisciplinary Collaboration and Community Partnerships


Semester Hours: 3
Once a Year
In this course, students will learn about and develop an appreciation for the role of collaboration during the transition process. Beginning with a general overview, multiple definitions of collaboration will be discussed in relation to various models of collaboration. Students will also learn about the different components of collaboration and the process with which to establish a successful partnership within transition services. The course will offer an in-depth focus on each of the stakeholders in the transition process including the student with a disbility, the parent/family/guardian, the special education teacher, the school counselor, other educational staff (e.g., principal, etc.), the rehabilitation counselor, and other community-based organizations (e.g., employers, colleges, Centers for Independent Living, etc.). Students  should leave the course with a greater understanding about the various roles, functions, and perspectives each stakeholder brings to the partnership and the impact this has on a successful outcome for the student.
