Dear Educators, Practitioners, and Advocates,

We are delighted to welcome you to Transition in Practice, a new open-access, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to supporting educators and practitioners in the field of special education. This inaugural issue marks the beginning of an exciting journey to provide accessible, research-based resources aimed at improving transition outcomes for students with disabilities.

At Transition in Practice, our focus is clear: to empower you with the knowledge, strategies, and tools necessary to enhance transition-related instruction, services, and supports. Our mission is rooted in a commitment to evidence-based and ethically informed practices that address the unique needs of transition-aged youth. We believe that by equipping educators, related service providers, administrators, and other stakeholders with high-quality resources, we can collectively create pathways for meaningful and successful transitions for all students.

This journal is not only a repository of peer-reviewed articles but also a collaborative platform where you, our readers, can engage with cutting-edge research and practical strategies designed for real-world application. With an emphasis on school-based instruction, each issue will feature contributions from leading academics and practitioners in the field, ensuring content that is both contemporary and actionable.

We invite you to explore this inaugural issue and join us in shaping the future of transition services. Whether you are a special educator, an administrator, or a related service provider, we are confident that you will find Transition in Practice to be an invaluable resource in your work.
