      This text is designed to assist state, regional, and local education agencies and other collaborating agencies to improve interdisciplinary and interagency service coordination for children, youth, and adults with disabilities in accordinace with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and other related statutes. The training guide supports the mission of Regional Resource Centers by providing technical assistance and training to improve the quality of service coordination. Chapter 1 offers a philosophy for interdisciplinary, interagency service coordination. It explores the emergence of interagency coordination within several human service sectors and examines services as an integrated system to address the needs of individuals and their families. This chapter also includes a summary of provisions for interagency coordination in recent laws. Chapter 2 outlines eight essential functions of interdisciplinary and interagency service coordination and examines the roles of the service coordinator. The third chapter focuses on the practical aspects of developing and managing interagency service coordination and presents a 10-step strategic plan for implementation. Chapter 4 offers examples of service coordination in operation for infants and young children; pre-adolescents, teens, and their families; and young adults. Discussion questions accompany each of the 11 case examples. The final chapter reviews basic evaluation principles and reinforces the concept of evaluation for improvement and renewal. The focus is on assessing service outcomes, systems change, and improvement at local and state levels. (Contains 40 references.) (DB)
