The rapidly evolving challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, including statewide school closures, have caused countless disruptions for educators across Tennessee as they strive to support their students with disabilities while working remotely.

UT CLEE was honored to collaborate with other TDOE Special Populations grantees providing services to special populations within public schools to identify, develop, and share resources that educators can use to serve their students and families well. UT CLEE ‘s contribution to this collection is our Self-Advocacy and Career Planning and our Transition IEP development resources.

The full online resource collection  provides both full text online, as well as in printable format (linked below).

1. Information sheet for educators
2. Information sheet for families
3. One-page reference guide for families
