EDITORS' NOTE: This article presents a forum for the personal views of four significant
contributors to the conceptualization and implementation of transition programming as it exists
in this country today. These individuals were selected from among a number of active
contributors to the transition movement as representative spokespersons for the field. The
questions posed by the guest editors were- developed from ideas and concerns that surfaced in
the many manuscripts submitted for consideration in this special issue. Some of the issues
raised in the questions reflect concerns expressed openly by professionals in the field, while
others were inferred from more subtle or cautious statements. Each contributor received a set of
questions to address. Each question was given to at least two contributors. They were encouraged
to respond not only to their own set, but to any question of interest contained in other
contributors' sets as well. As a result, a few questions were addressed by all four contributors.
Their responses appear to reflect some consensus regarding the importance of the issues and
trends suggested in the questions. Even so, the substance of their responses reflects a range of
positions that would provoke keen consideration by readers.
