Description
Pre-ETS, or Pre-Employment Transition Services, are a set of services designed to help students with disabilities, including those with mental health conditions, typically aged 14-22, prepare for post-secondary education or employment. These services offer an early start on career exploration and skill development, often preceding or supplementing traditional Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) services. This comic is used to increase the awareness of Pre-ETS.
