TRANSITION TABLOID
Transition Newsletter for
Oklahoma Educators, Providers,
Families, and Students
The Oklahoma Transition Institute (OTI) listserv maintained by
the Zarrow Center for Learning Enrichment at the University of
Oklahoma regularly distributes information about transition
education resources, important dates, and programs throughout
the state of Oklahoma. In order to keep the transition teams
informed and provide an opportunity to share information, the
Oklahoma Transition Council (OTC) has compiled a newsletter
to be distributed electronically on a bimonthly basis. The
newsletter will provide updates of information from teams and
the Transition Council, information and reminders about
upcoming events, and links to resources for supporting transition
education and services. If you or your team would like to have
information published in the newsletter, please contact Karen
Little at (405) 325-8951 or ksparker@ou.edu.
