CDCI promotes opportunities for individuals with developmental disabilities.
Serving Vermont schools and families since 1977
The Vermont State I-Team was developed with a federal demonstration grant from
1974 to 1977. The I-Team has been continuously funded through the Vermont
Department of Education since 1977. Beginning in September 2006, the I-Team
initiated a fee for service program to supplement the state's funding
due to rising costs and limited resources.
The I-Team has five regional offices coordinated through the Center on Disability and Community Inclusion/UCEDD, at the University of Vermont. Each region has an Educational Consultant who at a minimum has a Masters Degree and demonstrated skill and experience in educating students with intensive special education needs. Each region also has a Family Resources Consultant who is a parent of a child with intensive educational needs. In addition, UCEDD faculty serve as statewide interdisciplinary consultants.
The I-Team mission is to assist local IEP teams of families, educators, and other service providers in the delivery of quality educational services to students with intensive special education needs through technical assistance, professional development, training, support for systems change and family support.
