11/12/14 NOTES:

  • Suggestion to have an automatic release connected to physical so parent and schools can easily get
  • Are parents informed of screenings to ID SE issues? (including autism) Need to identify what families can advocate for themselves.
  • Identify specifics of which practitioners use the screeners currently. ID who may have lists of Ingham Co providers who are not pediatricians.

12/10/14 NOTES:

None

1/14/15 NOTES:

  • Targeting law enforcement and DHS agencies for community outreach should be a specific goal. But, how to approach them and then making sure to follow up on that is the problem.
