To ask the Scottish Government what action it is taking to support young people in accessing peer support networks as part of the transitions to adulthood strategy
Actions outlined in the recently published The National Transitions to Adulthood Strategy that the Scottish Government will take forward to help young people to access networks of peer support include:
- exploring models of peer support which can help young disabled people who are making the transition to adulthood to build confidence and knowledge; and
- sharing aspirational success stories, where permission is granted, of young disabled people with lived and living experience of the transition to adulthood to inspire other young disabled people to achieve their fullest potential.
