Abstract
The transition of youth with spina bifida into adulthood is an exciting opportunity to branch out, explore and participate in community, and reach higher levels of independence. The Life Course Model Web site is a resource designed to help in this process. This article describes how this tool can help individuals with spina bifida, parents, teachers, and caregivers evaluate this process and provide assistance where necessary.
