The Regional Resource and Federal Centers (RRFC) Network is made up of the six Regional Resource Centers for Special Education (RRC) and the Federal Resource Center (FRC).
What are the Regional Resource and Federal Centers?
The six RRCs and the FRC are funded by the federal Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) to assist state education agencies in the systemic improvement of education programs, practices, and policies that affect children and youth with disabilities. These centers offer consultation, information services, technical assistance, training, and product development.
Through the RRFC Network, the individual RRCs and the FRC work together to help states and U.S. jurisdictions identify and address issues across regions and nationally and to facilitate networking and information-sharing. The RRFC Network regularly collaborates on conferences, topical workgroups, product development, and other activities.
By working collaboratively, the RRFC Network, the larger OSEP-funded Technical Assistance and Dissemination (TA&D) Network, the RRCs and the FRC are able to offer their clients the benefits of a nationwide, cutting-edge source for special education technical assistance.
The beneficiaries of the RRCs' work are children and youth with disabilities and the families and professionals associated with them. |
