The directory lists grants funded under the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (OSERS) Secondary and Transition Initiative. Information was obtained from a January, 1988, questionnaire of projects, from original grant applications, and from the previous year's project profiles. The compendium includes five sections: (1) an introduction which describes the Federal Transition Initiative and the role of the Transition Institute at the University of Illinois; (2) an overview which contains a summary of the descriptive data collected from projects in each of the current competitions; (3) a Project Profile Section which provides a summary of each individual competition, a summary of the projects funded under the competition (both current and expired), and individual project profiles (including project demographic information, project purpose, current focus, primary grantee, cooperating agencies, project participants, project evaluation plan, and project products); (4) an index providing a guide to projects' specific evaluation components and program characteristics; (5) appendices such as a copy of the Project Characteristics Questionnaire.
