A majority of Leahy Life Plan clients fit this profile. Academics and grades do not always determine if they will be able to be self sustaining after high school and college. Many IEPs and other documents show strengths and don't highlight the level of supports to achieve their success therefore getting 18-25yr olds denied many time for government benefits and supports.

Helping this specific population is what Leahy Life Plan www.leahylifeplan.com does
