The Future Choices Transition Expo for Students with a Disability kicks off at McDonald Jones Stadium from 9am to 1pm on Wednesday 7 August. Transitioning from school to the next stage of your life when you are living with disability often comes with unique challenges and unexpected opportunities. Attracting over 120 exhibitors with a focus on connecting young people living with disability to employment services, employers, education providers, disability providers and government services to help them make informed decisions about their future and the support available in the move to adult life, the expo is presented by Career Links.

Career Links is a not-for-profit organisation that creates pathways for all young people as they transition from school, the events are run in conjunction with the National Disability Coordination Officer Program and the NSW Department of Education Support Teachers. The event is a critical information resource for school leavers who face the day-to-day challenges of living with a disability and are seeking to explore pathways open to them.
