Here in the Inland Empire, we have seen the Wrightslaw book, From Emotions to Advocacy, used in a parent support group setting to teach parents how to best advocate for their child. http://www.wrightslaw.com What is a SELPA? Special Education Local Planning Area A SELPA is a service area covered by a special education local plan and the governance structure created under any of the planning options of Section 56205, 56206, 56208, 56211, 56213, 56241, 56243, 56244, & 56245 of the Education Code. Why do we have a SELPA? In 1977, all school districts and county school offices were mandated to form consortiums in geographical regions of sufficient size and scope to provide for all special education service needs of children residing within the region boundaries. Each region, Special Education Local Plan Area (SELPA), developed a local plan describing how it would provide special education services. Community Advisory Committee (CAC) The CAC is a team of parents and other individuals with a personal or professional interest in securing appropriate services for students with special needs. The CAC membership represents the geographic, ethnic, and socioeconomic makeup of the community it serves. The mission of a CAC is to involve interested parents, students, teachers, education specialists and consultants in establishing a networking system between the school and the community. The SELPA collaborates with county agencies and school districts to develop and maintain environments in which special needs students and families can live and succeed. 35 San Bernardino County SELPAs There are six SELPA’s in San Bernardino County: DESERT/MOUNTAIN SELPA covers the 20,627 square mile region from Adelanto, Apple Valley, Baker Valley, Barstow, Bear Valley, Helendale, Hesperia, Lucerne Valley, Needles, Oro Grande, Silver Valley, Snowline, Trona, Victor, Victor Valley and County programs. The purpose of the SELPA is to ensure that quality special education programs and services are available throughout the region to meet the individual needs of special education students.

Postsecondary education Students with disabilities who are preparing for postsecondary education have an exciting road ahead of them. However, they need to consider many issues to ensure a successful experience. The good news is that the number of students with disabilities enrolling in and graduating from postsecondary education is increasing, and many have gone on to be successful in their chosen careers. Still, the numbers are small compared to individuals without disabilities. The postsecondary environment is very different from 38 the secondary environment students with disabilities are accustomed to. Therefore effective preparation is vital to success. COMMUNITY COLLEGES It is the mission of the Disabled Student Program & Services program to provide services for students with disabilities in compliance with both Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The end goal -- to eliminate the educational barriers unique to students with disabilities.

Social Security Administration To find your nearest office, you may go online and use their office locator or check your local telephone listings for the Social Security office nearest you. Telephone: 1-800-772-1213 TTY: 1-800-325-0778 www.ssa.gov One of the Social Security Administration’s highest priorities is to help beneficiaries with disabilities achieve a better and more independent lifestyle by helping them take advantage of employment opportunities. The SSI and SSDI programs should not be viewed as exclusive and permanent sources of income to the person with disabilities. They should instead be used as stepping stones to improving a person’s economic condition. There are work incentives available from the Social Security Administration designed to help people with disabilities enter or renter the workforce by protecting their entitlement to cash payments and/or Medicaid or medicare protection, until they can support themselves. Booklets on Social Security benefits are available to the general public. Familiarize yourself with work incentive provisions which can assist people with disabilities and their families make important decisions about employment. You can get the publications via: Phone at (410) 965-2039, Fax at (410) 965-2037 or Email at [email protected] What is SSI? SSI makes monthly payments to people who have low income and few resources and are: Age 65 or older; Blind; or Disabled. If you are applying for SSI, you also should ask for What You Need To Know When You Get Supplemental Security Income (SSI) (Publication No. 05-11011). Disabled or blind children also can receive SSI. You can get more information in Benefits For Children With Disabilities (Publication No. 0510026). The basic SSI amount is the same nationwide. However, many states add money to the basic benefit. You can call Social Security to find out the amount for your state. What is SSDI? The Social Security disability insurance program (sometimes referred to as SSDI) pays benefits to you and certain family members if you worked long enough and paid Social Security taxes. Your adult child also may qualify for benefits on your earnings record if he or she has a disability that started before age 22. 51 The In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program is administered by each county with oversight by the California Department of Social Services (CDSS). For application and eligibility information contact your local adult services section.

Medi-Cal is California’s name for Medicaid, the federal and state program of medical assistance for needy and lowincome persons who are residents in the state of California. [Contact your local Department of Public Social Services, a state agency, for more info.] Who can get Medi-Cal? Even if you are working, own a house, or are married, you may be eligible for Medi-Cal. Medi-Cal, you must fall into one of the following Medi-Cal program categories: 1.) If you are aged 65 years or older, blind, or disabled and you are getting Supplemental Security Income/State Supplementary (SSI/SSP), you are automatically eligible for Medi-Cal and will be sent a California Benefits Identification Card (BIC). If you are getting Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC), you may also be entitled to get Medi-Cal benefits. 2.) If you are Medically Indigent if you are a pregnant woman with no linkage to a PA program; a refugee in the country 12 months or less; or a person age 21-65 in a skilled nursing facility or intermediate care facility. What does it mean to be “Disabled” for Medi-Cal? To get Medi-Cal as a disabled person, you must have severe physical and/or mental problems which will: * last at least 12 months in a row and, * stop you from working during those 12 months, or * possibly result in death. You must be able to prove your dis- abling physical and/or mental problems with medical records, tests, and other medical findings. What Property/Assets are Allowed for Medi-Cal? There are property/assets limits for the Medi-Cal program. The county looks at how much you and your family have each month. The home you live in, furnishings, personal items, and one motor vehicle are not counted. A single person is allowed to keep $2000 in property/assets, more if you are married and/or have a family. If a child has property/assets or if a stepparent wants Medi-Cal for a stepchild, other rules may apply.
