The Exceptional Student Services Unit will hold four virtual listening sessions this fall to help gain a better understanding of the needs of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color parents and families of students with exceptionalities.
The purpose of the listening sessions is to:
- Gain families' perspectives of what is going well and what needs improvement in special and gifted education.
- Build on what is going well and develop support to address identified needs.
- Better understand the needs of Colorado’s BIPOC and bilingual families across the state to empower them to better support their child’s individual needs.
- Form a partnership with Colorado’s BIPOC and bilingual families to meet their needs by providing them with targeted guidance and support.
All sessions will be held virtually:
- Session 1: 10 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 10
- Session 2: 5 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 29
- Session 3: 12 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 19
- Session 4: 1 p.m. Friday, Nov. 11, for Spanish-speaking families/parents
