Leadership and advocacy for the education of children and youth with disabilities
VCSEA supports special education leaders across Vermont through mentorship, professional development, and a unified voice in statewide policy. November 29, 2025 marks the 50 year anniversary of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), formerly known as the Education for All Handicapped Children Act.
Leading with Purpose in Special Education
For over four decades, VCSEA has supported special education leaders through advocacy, professional development, and statewide collaboration. We work closely with school administrators, the Vermont Agency of Education, and national partners like CASE to ensure equitable outcomes for all learners.
