| Abstract | The paper examines the role of parents in the transition of developmentally disabled or otherwise handicapped persons into adult services. Because parents play an important role on the interdisciplinary team, parent training is important. This training can come in the form of university credit courses, workshops and mini-courses, self-help groups, and parent information networks. Such programs exist across the country. Obstacles to parent training include attitudes of professionals who assign all expertise and authority to the professional team, the lack of a coordinating agency to guide parents through the maze of available adult services, differing parental needs for adult disabled children, and lack of data concerning the needs of disabled adults. No mechanism currently exists to target state-of-the-art program information to parents of adults with disabilities; however, University Affiliated Facilities are well positioned to overcome obstacles to parent training in adult services through their programs of interdisciplinary training, exemplary service, and information dissemination.
