Guiding Questions for a Culturally Responsive Framework During Preemployment Transition Services

The purpose of this article is to create guiding questions within a culturally responsive framework for Pre-Employment Transition Service (Pre-ETS) that holds service providers accountable to appropriately support Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CLD) students with disabilities (SWD) and their families. We provide guiding questions that aid service providers in collaborating and developing critical consciousness before and during transition planning and while delivering the five areas of Pre-ETS (WIOA, 2014). The framework includes (a) elements of relationship building and critical motivation; (b)critical reflection and to support the enhancement of the transition plan and (c) critical action during the process of implementing Pre-ETS.
