Project C3

Project C3 is an online resource that provides critical transition information for ALL students (and their parents and teachers) in Minnesota. The goal of Project C3 is to improve transition outcomes for youth after high school in preparation for employment or post-secondary through training, advocacy, facilitated system collaborations, and resource mapping. Many families are unaware of various program and services available to teens and young adults in their community and this can be challenging when transitioning from high school to the adult world of postsecondary education, employment, and independent living.

Please take a few moments to check out the C3 website at: www.c3online.org. The site’s searchable transition resource database was recently updated for the 18 county region of southwest and west central Minnesota through a Capacity Building Grant through the Minnesota Department of Education.

Project C3: Connecting Youth to Communities and Careers is a partnership among several Minnesota state agencies and PACER Center, a parent training and information center serving Minnesota families of children and youth with disabilities. Partners include the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development's (DEED) Vocational Rehabilitation program and the Minnesota Department of Education.
