|Has all the edits from the Curriculum. Will revise and make it into one document. Reading level |Angela will email Maggie to see if they can|
|issues – up to the facilitator to give examples and make it applicable for their group. There is |get a contractor to revise into simpler |
|funding to get this translated into Spanish or should it be looked at for another edition on a |language, then get that translated into |
|more basic reading level? Perhaps ADD would fund this. Look at someone who could revise this |Spanish. |
|into a more easy-to-read. Rob Boy will be demo-ing – moving this from Metadot to a web-site. | |
|Populate the website with more information. Look at Survey of UCEDD Directors – Tips for writing | |
