Overlapping Eligibilities: An Introduction - Mini Series Part 1


Listen Later

In the first episode of her new miniseries, host Jenny Ponzuric delves into overlapping eligibilities in special education. She explains how different states have varying criteria and classifications, using examples such as autism with emotional disability and health impairment. Jenny emphasizes that eligibility should not drive services, but rather the student’s goals and needs.

This episode also highlights an exciting upcoming opportunity: a two-part live training series, Overlapping Eligibilities: Differentiating When Similar Criteria is Apparent.
