Our Vision
We envision a Michigan where transition services are equitable, empowering, and deeply rooted in community. Where every young adult—regardless of ability—has access to meaningful work, lifelong learning, and a life they choose.
Our Mission
MTSA exists to strengthen and support transition services across Michigan by fostering collaboration, sharing innovative practices, and advocating for inclusive pathways to employment, education, and independent living.
What We Do
MTSA board members are the executors who guide the MTSA toward a sustainable future. The board works to adopt sound, ethical, and legal governance and financial policies and assures resources are in place to fulfill its mission. MTSA maintains both voting and non-voting board members who volunteer from across Michigan. Included are volunteers affiliated with Michigan education, public and private agencies, self-advocates, and families. MTSA is extremely grateful for the time and effort of all volunteers who share this passion and are invested in quality transition programming, resources, and support for young adults as they enter post high school life.
The following are elected board positions. Each year, a new board president and president-elect is appointed by the voting board. Upon finishing the one-year term, the president becomes the past-president and the president-elect assumes the responsibilities of the MTSA president.
Regional representatives support different areas in Michigan.
