The Path to Independence: Mobile Apps to Support Transition-Age Youth

The PACER Center provides support to young adults with disabilities and families who are making decisions about education and services. Many mobile apps can support students as they work towards self-determination and independence in postsecondary education, job training, employment, and independent living. The PACER Center’s resource, "The Path to Independence: Mobile Apps to Support Transition-Age Youth," provides a list of free or low-cost apps reviewed by parents and professionals.

The document categorizes apps into the following topics:

  • Exploring College and Career Pathways
  • Finding and Getting a Job
  • Vocational Support
  • Independent Living Skills
  • Executive Functioning
  • Reading, Writing, and Note-taking Supports
