Abstract

Abstract: School psychologists serve a critical role directly and indirectly in postsecondary transition of adolescents with disabilities, given their expertise and skills in special education and interventions. The National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) Domains of Practice (2010) provide guidelines for school psychologists' service delivery, which reference activities relevant to building career and college readiness. Paths 2 the Future (P2F) is an evidence-based curriculum that provides instruction for young women with disabilities to support postsecondary career and college readiness. In this article, we propose an alignment of the P2F curriculum to the NASP Domains of Practice to illustrate how P2F can be embedded into school psychology practice to serve the unique needs of young women with disabilities.
