Referrals to the Department of Education are coordinated through the Children’s Behavioral Health and Education Division. This division also monitors the delivery of educational services provided under the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Part B and Title I to students in state-operated or state-supported community residences.
