English language learners with disabilities: Identification and other state policies and issues

For this publication, which is dedicated to policies related to ELs with disabilities, researchers interviewed SEA staff members from seven states that were selected because they had a large or rapidly growing EL population. The states included were Alaska, Arkansas, California, Florida, Kansas, New Mexico, and Texas. SEAs can review the policies and recommendations included in this publication to see if their own policies for ELs with disabilities align.
