Hello, my name is Bob Farran and I am your SELPA Director and have been for the past 20+ years. I love the work I do and the families we work with. It is difficult work trying to meet the unique needs of our 13,000 pupils with disabilities in an area of reduced resources. I don’t do this work alone. I am just one of the many professionals and parent volunteers committed to the process.
The SELPA is responsible for the following items, working in collaboration with our school districts and charter schools:
- Program development and current trends
- Coordination of services and legislation
- Funding and grants
- Compliance and data collection
- Training and technical assistance
- Outreach and interagency collaboration
- Quality control, research and development
