Tenn. Code Ann. § 52-7-105: Plans for transition to adult services

Intellectual and developmental disability service providers shall prepare interagency plans to assure that persons seventeen (17) years of age in state custody who will continue to need services and supports in adulthood can make a smooth transition to adult services. The plan must take into account the requirements in other state and federal laws with respect to service. If necessary to avoid delays in service during the transition into adult services, plans must be prepared before the persons become seventeen (17) years of age.
