This guide presents profiles of 116 Chapter 1 projects recognized through the 1984-85 National Identification Program and identified as unusually successful in meeting the special needs of disadvantaged students. The projects, which serve neglected, delinquent, and/or migrant students are listed alphabetically by district within states. Each profile includes information on number of students served, setting, curriculum, evidence of effectiveness, and specific project attributes believed to be responsible for the program's success. The aspects of the programs that seemed most important to their success were appropriate methods, materials, and approaches, coordination with the regular school programs or other special programs, and parent/community involvement. Following these profiles are descriptions of Chapter 1 Joint Dissemination Review Panel-approved projects. These descriptions contain the project name, a descriptive headline and summary, and contact information. Two appendices provide a list of all projects nominated in the Identification Program and one containing a profile index to National Identification Program projects. (KH)
