The Special Needs Family Hour Presents: Pepin Academies' Transition Job Training Program!!     This week our show features the Pepin Academies' Transition Job Training Program with Dr. Jeff Skowronek, the Executive Director of the Pepin Academies and Janae Kaptan, the Transition Coordinator of the Pepin Academies, a tuition free public charter school dedicated to students with learning disabilities and learning related disabilities.   The Pepin Academies' Transition Program offers vocationally based training in conjunction with life and job readiness classes designed for individuals from age 18 to 22 with identified learning or learning-related disabilities that have deferred receipt of their high school diploma to continue their education beyond the traditional 24 credit diploma. This program is state funded and is provided at no cost to the student. The Pepin Academies' Transition Program is committed to providing the opportunity for students to have real-world experiences through pre-vocational training at various job sites, including the Hillsborough County Public Defender’s Office, Publix Supermarkets, Moffitt Cancer Center, Tampa Police Department, Well Built Bikes at University Mall, Ferman Chevrolet, food service at Raymond James Stadium, event set up at TPepin Hospitality Centre, and childcare at Academy Kids.   Pepin Academies Transition Program is now accepting applications for the 2019-20 academic year! Please contact regarding any questions about deferment of diploma, available services for your students based on their current IEP, and any general questions about the Pepin Academies Transition Program.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
