The U.S. Department of Education’s Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) website brings together IDEA information and resources from the Department and its grantees.

Here is the text of section 1450

All the materials found on the CPIR Hub have been created and archived for Parent Centers around the country to help them provide support and services to the families they serve.

"The National Center for Learning Disabilities (NCLD) is a non-profit organization focused on building community, sharing resources, and shaping policy to help individuals with learning and attention issues."

Resources developed by the National Dissemination Center for Children with Disabilities are now housed by the Center for Parent Information and Resources.
Information and referrals on disabilities and areas related to specific disabilities, early Intervention, special education and related services, individualized education programs, family issues, disability organizations, professional associations, education rights, and transition to adult life for families, educators, and other professionals are provided here.

NCII works in conjunction with many of our nation's most distinguished data-based individualization (DBI) experts. It is funded by the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) and is part of OSEP's Technical Assistance and Dissemination Network (TA&D).

The mission of the NCII is to build knowledge and capacity of state and local leaders, faculty and professional development providers, educators, and other stakeholders to support implementation of intensive intervention for students with severe and persistent learning and/or social, emotional, or behavioral needs using data-based individualization (DBI).
