MD Developmental Disabilities Council
Request for Proposals - August 2009
$100,000 Available for Education Initiative
Educating Students with Disabilities
in the Least Restrictive Environment:

Parent Leadership

Purpose   

The Maryland Developmental Disabilities Council (Council) is inviting innovative proposals from organizations, parent groups, individuals, and other qualified interested parties to conduct activities that result in:

1) increased numbers of people actively engaged in systems change regarding inclusive education, and

2) lasting reform to Maryland’s local education systems, demonstrated by an increase in the number of students with disabilities educated in the least restrictive environment.  This systems change initiative is in direct alignment with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, which requires that:

  • To the maximum extent appropriate for each child, children with disabilities must be educated with children without disabilities and in the schools they would be educated in were they not disabled.

PROPOSALS ARE DUE BY OCTOBER 9, 2009 AT 3:00PM
All individuals and organizations submitting a proposal must be available to meet with the review committee on October 28, 2009 in the event that you are invited to discuss your proposal.  Please hold the day.  The Council will confirm any such participation and schedule a specific time to meet by October 23, 2009.
