| Abstract | Over the last decade, many local education agencies (LEAs) across California imposed significant restrictions on community-based orientation and mobility (O&M) instruction. Administrators from these LEAs prohibited O&M Specialists from transporting students off-campus for instruction, with one large Southern California district going so far as to direct O&M specialists to rewrite existing IEP goals that required transportation. Consequently, students who attended schools governed by these LEAs were denied access to the community-based O&M instruction to which they were entitled under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (2004), known as IDEA. In 2017, CAOMS and the California Council of the Blind (CCB) succeeded in passing a law entitled "Expanded core curriculum: visually impaired pupils," (AB-947, 2019), amending California's Education Code. This law affirms the rights of students with visual impairments to community-based evaluation and instruction as needed. This report describes these procedures, which can serve as a model for other states experiencing administrative barriers to providing community-based O&M instruction. (ERIC). |
