Equitable Services – Key Points Equitable Participation is… Consultation must be TIMELY, MEANINGFUL and is REQUIRED
General Equitable Services Information *IMPORTANT REMINDER* REQUIRED: Local Education Agency to be responsible for provision. School districts have the data to know where students reside and would attend. (Follow the Title I Model) The provision is required regardless if a CBO is the lead partner.
General Equitable Services Information Districts may add a continuing grant to the already required non-public consultation. The CBO partner may do the contact, but if the provision is not implemented correctly, the district partner is responsible. The district knows who they are required to consult with during non-public consultation.
