Platform Overview

🚀

Our Mission

MyKey LaunchPad exists to bridge the gap between school-based IEP planning and real adult life. Too many families navigate the disability transition landscape alone, without guides, without tools, and without a clear roadmap.

We built one place for the whole picture: goals, milestones, resources, team collaboration, and life domain planning, organized in plain, kind words.

"Every child deserves a roadmap. Every family deserves a guide. Every future deserves a plan."

Barb Beck, Founder, MyKey Plans
