Yolo County Special Education
Local Plan Area (SELPA)
 The
goal of the Special Education Local
Plan Area (SELPA) is to deliver high
quality special education programs and
services to special needs students in
the most efficient and cost-effective
manner possible. The Yolo County SELPA
serves the following districts: Davis
Joint Unified, Esparto Unified, Washington
Unified, Winters Joint Unified, Woodland
Joint Unified, and the Yolo County Office
of Education. As the SELPA's Administrative
Unit, the Yolo County Office of Education
receives funds and is responsible for
seeing that every eligible child receives
appropriate services. In addition to
administrative support, the SELPA helps
districts comply with legal requirements
concerning students with disabilities,
and provides professional development
activities to foster better relationships
between schools and the families of
special needs students. 3,000 special
education students and their families
receive services from the Yolo County
SELPA.
