WORKSHOPS, MEETINGS AND TOPICAL CONFERENCE CALLS

Part C Finance Leadership Initiative

NECTAC and the IDEA Infant & Toddler Coordinators Association (ITCA), in collaboration with the Regional Resource Centers and private consultants have launched a collaborative multi-state technical assistance initiative on leadership in financing Part C systems. The initiative was developed primarily as a result of a "think tank" meeting sponsored by NECTAC in response to an identified need from the field to address the challenges of building and maintaining an adequate finance system that is responsive to change and assisting people in leadership positions to hone their leadership skills. The Leadership Initiative is designed to assist Part C Coordinators to effectively assess the fiscal health of their Part C system and develop a plan for implementing change. This is done through the completion of a self-assessment tool that enables Part C Coordinators to conduct strategic planning based on state demographics, fiscal resources supports and services, as well as their political and economic context.
