Extractions: Cameron, New York By moving the meal service sites to a nearby trailer park, the Addison Central School District was able to overcome the transportation barrier that prevents so many rural children from participating in SFSP. The trailer park was an ideal location because the majority of families qualified for free and reduced price school meals. The school district enlisted parents as volunteers and included them in nutrition education and other enrichment activities.

Lake Park, Maryland Kudos to the Garrett County Health Department for believing it could! Until 1999, the children of this rural, impoverished community did not have access to Summer meals. In the past, public and private groups had discussed the need for the program, but no agency felt capable of sponsoring it. Believing that healthy behaviors are caught not taught, the Departments nutritionists, health educators, and outreach staff identified the need to work with both children and their families to teach health education. To achieve this, it combined the funding sources from other grant programs. It also sponsored "Serious Fun Day Camps" for three weeks, in three targeted regions, to maximize limited staff resources. Most of the children were able to walk to the camps which were located in town parks. Children were taught nutrition and healthy behaviors while enjoying Summer meals. They often applied what they learned to real life by preparing their own lunches and snacks!

Extractions: Membership of BIA-WV PRESIDENTS CORNER Welcome to the renewed edition of MOVING AHEAD and our ongoing efforts to revive the Brain Injury Association of West Virginia (BIAWV). We have not been dormant these past few years, only in a rebuilding stage. "Thank You" for your continued support of our organization.. We endeavor to provide informational services to survivors, their families and the professionals who serve them by offering education, support groups, advocacy and prevention services in order to deter the numbers of victims of this awful tragedy and provide a life bridge to our community. So many things have happened in the past few months that give us all a sense of hope and renewal. We have received financial support from several sources including the private sector, public grants, private donations and many individuals who have stepped up to the plate to volunteer. I want to thank all those who have helped us with these endeavors. I especially would like to thank the law firm of Hill, Peterson, Carper, Bee and Deitzler, The Center for Community Independence and Neurological Case Management Associates for their ongoing support for BIAWV. Without their help, we would not be able to provide even minimal support to survivors and families.

Extractions: Continued Today, many states are considering including some special education training in their certification requirements for general education teachers. At Syracuse University's education school, a leader in embracing inclusion, general education and special education teachers are taught together and receive dual certification at the end of the four-year program. Douglas P. Biklen, the chairman of the inclusive education department at the private university in Syracuse, N.Y., says the faculty there found that a lot of coursework was duplicated in the special education and general education programs, and decided that all education students would benefit from a combined degree. The program has been popular, he says. "We were a little worried, because whether or not they were interested in elementary or secondary education, they were coming to this inclusive program," he notes. "We were pleased to find out the students came in large numbers." Today, many states are considering including some special education training in their certification requirements for general education teachers. Last year, 22 states required elementary teachers and 21 required secondary school teachers to study some coursework related to students with disabilities, according to an Education Department report to Congress in December. But only 11 states required general education teachers to have practical experience with disabled students before receiving certification. "The general education teacher needs to understand, basically, how the disability affects a child's ability to learn," Hehir says. "They should also expect that they have available to them competent help."

We cannot and will not support any legislation that denies our children with disabilities their hard-earned civil rights. Now is not the time to eliminate critical protections designed to ensure accountability from IDEA. Protections that: Mandate that these children "stay-put" in their current educational placement and not have their educational programs disrupted when their parents challenge any proposed exclusion in excess of 10 school days for allegedly inappropriate behavior that is non-dangerous, non drug, non weapon related, and often a manifestation of disability, an inappropriate IEP or the failure to implement an appropriate IEP;
