Kentucky Natural
Environments Task Force and Self-Assessment Project
The
Kentucky Natural Environments Task Force and Self-Assessment Project
was formed to make specific recommendations related to the implementation
of the Natural Environments mandate for the state of Kentucky.
Activities of the Task Force are funded through the State Improvement
Grant and activities of the Task Force were designed to provide assistance
and support in the implementation of activities recommended and supported
by the Part C program.
The
Task Force has completed the implementation of three specific inter-related
activities:
-
Development and dissemination of the state position statement on natural environments,
-
Identification
and validation of guiding principles, indicators and strategies for
implementation of the state position statement, and
-
Development of a self-assessment document
and pilot process to assist local service
providers in the implementation of services in the natural environment.
-
Task Force activities were supported through State Improvement
Grant Dollars, Kentucky Department of Education and the Kentucky
Commission on Children with Special Health Care Needs-First
Steps Program, administered through the University of Kentucky,
Interdisciplinary Human Development Institute and Department of
Family Studies.
- Although the Task Force
and NESAP have completed their tasks, relevant information and provider
products are still available on this web site. For further information
