Steps to prepare for adult life (PfAL)

This preparing for adult life step-by-step guide is for families of young people with additional needs. It outlines the transition process in Norfolk, as a young person moves on from children's services.

This guide takes you through steps that you can follow with your young person, to help you both prepare for their life as an adult.

It is never too soon for your young person to start thinking about what they might want and need once they become an adult. It is important that you both consider the skills and support they will need as early as possible.
