NCDB Publishes Recommendations for Intervener Services

NCDB's Recommendations for Improving Intervener Services were recently completed and are available at interveners.nationaldb.org.  NCDB developed these recommendations in response to a request from the Department of Education’s Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP). 

The development of the recommendations was preceded by in-depth data collection about the current status of intervener services in the U.S., including the accomplishments of those who have worked diligently to advance the practice of intervener services over the past several decades.  Many people who are involved in the lives of children and youth who are deaf-blind assisted us during this process by participating in surveys, interviews, and panel discussions and we are deeply grateful to everyone who was involved.

We invite you to share your thoughts and perspectives on these recommendations either by contacting NCDB directly or by joining our new online forum and posting your comments at http://network.nationaldb.org/.
