IEP facilitation has grown in practice over the last decade, with the number of states offering IEP facilitation statewide increasing from 9 states in 2005 to 30 states in 2014. Idaho, Connecticut, Illinois, Ohio, and Texas participated in a three year (2011-2014) IEP facilitation workgroup with CADRE aimed to either start an IEP facilitation program or improve an existing one. Presentations will include highlights of the work done in four of the states, two with new programs (Illinois and Texas) and two with existing programs (Idaho and Ohio). Time for audience questions will be included.
