Resource Materials Available for Unit Leaders

Specific resource handbooks have been developed to provide unit officers with information and guidelines to help perform their roles and plan unit activities.

Resources available include:

TO THE POINT is a resource handbook containing fact sheets addressing five areas:

  • Officer Roles and Responsibilities includes guidelines for officer positions.
  • Committee Roles and Responsibilities covers types of committees and typical committee roles.
  • Unit Activities provides ideas for planning, implementing and evaluating unit activities as well as suggestions for specific types of activities.
  • Membership Development addresses the recruitment and retention of members.
  • Unit Resources includes general information about CEC and other relevant information for units.

CEC Policy Manual sets forth the principles which guide elected and appointed officials and staff in fulfilling the mission, purposes, and program of CEC. It contains CEC’s organizing policies, operational policies and procedures, professional policies, plus appendices.

Guidelines for Units on Legal Issues is a primer on topics including tax exemption, incorporation, employer identification number, tax returns, liability, bonding, and lobbying.

Exceptional Children's Week contains guidelines for how to organize, plan and launch an Exceptional Children's Week program in your community. Exceptional Children’s Week is a means for educating the public about children with disabilities and garner support for them and special education.

These materials are available upon request in limited quantities at no charge. Use the Membership Materials Order Form or contact CEC’s Constituent Services Center at (toll free) 888/232-7733 or service@cec.sped.org.
