AB 114 Transition Workgroup
Invitation to Obtain Parent Viewpoints
• Effective July 1, 2011, the California Legislature repealed the AB 3632 mandate. As a result, school districts are now responsible for ensuring that students with disabilities receive special education and related services to meet their needs according to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) of 2004.
• The California Department of Education (CDE) convened an AB 114 Transition Working Group of stakeholders for monthly meetings starting in August 2011 to assist school districts and other local education agencies with this transition. At the November 2011 meeting, participants encouraged parent groups to give a detailed presentation of parent viewpoints at a future meeting.

AB 114 Transition Survey
Survey Response Themes: # 1 of 8
Whether or not a district or a Special Education Local Plan
Area (SELPA) is directing information to families about
AB 114 transitions, families by and large do not feel well
informed.

Families report throughout the survey that they have been
receiving verbal and written communication about mental
health services for their children in connection with the
AB 114 transition at a very low rate.

AB 114 Transition Survey
Survey Response Themes: # 4 of 8
We know that many families view getting their children’s special education needs met by the school systems, as needlessly adversarial experiences.
That is not news, but it is borne out by the survey responses.
![Page 61: Mental Health Resources in Schools: NAMI California’s 2012 Parent & Caregiver Survey a workshop presented by Roger Greenbaum NAMI California Annual Conference](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551b7b7c550346a10a8b4eb7/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
AB 114 Transition Survey
Survey Response Themes: # 5 of 8
Our survey suggests a comparatively low proportion of
students currently receiving special education services are
receiving Medi-Cal benefits.
If this is correct, families will need linkage to other resources that can replace some of the former AB 3632 services.

Survey Response Themes: # 7 of 8
The changing of the guard from County Mental Health Departments to Local Education Agencies (LEAs, also known as school districts), as well as possibly to alternate service providers, may provide opportunities for improving the culture of special education services, and school systems’ partnerships with families.
