The Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) is soliciting applications for appointments to the Washington State Interagency Coordinating Council (SICC) for infants and toddlers with disabilities and their families. The SICC is mandated by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) Part C and established through the Governor’s Executive Order 14-03. As such, the Governor appoints the members of the Council. Council members advise and assist DCYF in implementing the ESIT program per the federal requirements of IDEA Part C.
Applications are currently sought for representation in the following vacancies on the Council:
- Early Intervention Service Provider (from one of the 6 DCYF regions not currently represented on the council – prioritize rural community)
- Head Start
- Tribal Leader (any WA tribe)
- Tribal Part C Provider (Bureau of Indian Education funded)
We recommend completing your application by December 31 as we will be reviewing applications in early January.
