3 The Blueprint for Collective Action Delaware s Strategic Plan and the Last Five Years
4 Number of Students Why Autism? Students with an Educational Classification of Autism Source: Delaware Department of Education School Year One in 68 people are identified with ASD New research shows prevalence as high as 1:50 From the number of public school children with an educational classification of autism increased 695%
5 Characteristics of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Main Affected Areas Communication Social Interaction Behavior & Attention Associated Medical & Mental Health Conditions Seizure Disorders Sleep Dysfunction Anxiety Disorders ADHD
6 Statewide Needs Assessment Collaboration between CDS, DOE & Autism Delaware Survey Focus Groups Workgroup Recommendations Education Health & Mental Health Adult Services Formation of the Interagency Committee on Autism (ICA) Key Agencies & Healthcare organizations Families Advocacy Organizations Blueprint for Collective Action Strategic Plan for Autism Collaboration Coordination Senate Bill 93 Passes Formally codifies the ICA as advisory council for the DNEA Establishes and funds DNEA Training for Professionals Family Navigation & Training LEND & HRSA grant applications approved Collaboations between CDS, Nemours, State Agencies & Autism Delaware Legislative Action Senate Bill 93 - Establish the Delaware Network For Excellence in Autism (DNEA) Senate Bill 92 - Change Title 14 code to include training professionals to work in all schools Legislative Taskforce Two Recommendations Statewide Training and Technical Assistance Center Educational Training & TA Team Nemours begins plan for Autism Center Community input and space planning
7 2-year Statewide Planning Initiative Stakeholder Input Focus Groups Statewide Needs Assessment Survey Autism Summit Strategic Plan Workgroups Combined Workgroup Interagency Committee for Autism Outcomes/Impacts Activities Resources Timeline Common Vision: To assure that all Delaware citizens with autism have the opportunity to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to live independent / interdependent lives within the community.
8 How many voices were heard? Over 500 families of children and adults with ASD Dozens of self-advocates Over 120 providers and educators
9 Results of Stakeholder Input Major Themes Diagnosis was difficult, lengthy and delayed services Lack of physician/pediatric understanding of Autism Spectrum Disorder Some parents reported very positive experiences in education while many other families expressed concerns with level of training and high turnover Serious anxiety about the future (post-secondary opportunities, employment, long-term care) Stress and frustration over fragmented systems
10 Strategic Plan Improvement Areas Identification, Diagnosis and Classification Training & Technical Assistance Pre-Professional Training Self-Determination, Self-Advocacy and Social Network Development Transition to Adult Life Family Support & Stakeholder Engagement Systems Coordination
11 Systems Coordination There will be increased coordination between health, mental health and education services for all individuals with ASD Develop and implement a Statewide Resource Center as a comprehensive resource, training and technical assistance center for families and professionals Availability of mental health services and crisis support services Ensure adequate medical insurance to cover all needed services
12 Taking Action If Delaware is to address the critical needs outlined in the strategic plan: Some initiatives will require action from the General Assembly For example: Establishing a Statewide Resource Center Implementing a statewide care coordination system responsive to ASD Establishing a statewide model of training and technical assistance for organizations/agencies who work with people with ASD and their families across the lifespan Establishing supports for people with ASD to attend and succeed in employment and college
13 Summary The dramatic increase in the number of individuals with ASD has created significant difficulties for schools, social agencies, hospitals, clinics and families across Delaware This climate of crisis motivated a statewide strategic planning process (Blueprint). Delaware now has a unified community of agencies, organizations and families who have a shared vision Blueprint establishes strategies to avoid crisis and plan for the future
14 Advocacy and ASAP Kathleen DeNight Mom Advocate Nurse
15 Autism Education Task Force It started (well, this part anyway) with the task force In 2014 Senator Margaret Rose Henry and Representative Earl Jaques sponsored a bill to create the autism education task force a first step towards realizing the vision of The Blueprint Task force goals: How do we get more resources into training and technical assistance to help teachers in all schools? How do we create the resource center outlined in the Blueprint in order to support that training?
16 Advocacy and ASAP Task force members: State agencies, legislators, advocates, non-profits, parents Met many times over late 2014 and early 2015 to create and submit the task force report Out of that report was born the Autism Services Advancement Package: ASAP SB92 increased resources available to support all teachers of students with autism in all schools SB93 created the legal framework and funding for the Delaware Network for Excellence in Autism (DNEA) and the Interagency Committee on Autism (ICA)
17 Passing the DNEA Advocacy efforts on ASAP continued well past the end of session Governor Jack Markell inserted funding for the DNEA into his FY2017 Governor s Recommended Budget SB93 (creation of the DNEA) passed on the last day of session 2016 with $500,000 of start-up funding One of only two new pieces of approved funding in the state budget for that year The DNEA will be led and housed at UD s Center for Disabilities Studies
18 Advocacy Continues The fate of SB92? Working with other stakeholder communities, Special Ed Directors and DOE to consider needed changes in special education across the board The voices of families make a critical difference in the outcomes
