TOOLS TO ASSIST IN TRANSITION

TOOLS TO ASSIST IN TRANSITION

Some actors find that they love being a part of the entertainment community, and transition themselves into jobs as representatives, casting directors, and other positions in the industry. Others may be drawn to a different career entirely, such as accounting, or psychotherapy, but advertise their services to actors and others in show business.

Actors in Transition: www.artistsintransitionusa.blogspot.com - This site helps actors who have health issues that prevent them from pursuing their artistic careers.

Dancers in Transition: www.careertransition.org - This is an incredible program that has been around for over 25 years that helps dancers transition into other careers.

Please email us if you know of other sites and services to help actors transition into other careers. We would love to include them on our site.
