MN State Interagency Coord (MnSIC)
The purpose of the Minnesota State Interagency Coordination (MnSIC) system planning initiative is to assist local school board and county boards to establish a coordinated service system for children with disabilities, ages 3 – 21, and their families. The MnSIC initiative brings together seven state public agencies to make needed policy changes so that a coordinated service system is developed. The goal of improving and delivering coordinated services to children and youth with disabilities and their families is accomplished through reduction of duplication of planning efforts and improved response to family and child/youth needs.
