The paper spells out the background and the specific aspects of an interagency agreement for serving handicapped students in Georgia. A letter from the Governor introduces the agreement and reviews some of its history. A memo follows from the State Superintendent of Schools. The interagency agreement (between the Department of Education and the Department of Human Resources) consists of four major sections: (1) a general section including definitions of such terms as handicapped children, individualized program plan, individualized service plan, and individualized work rehabilitation plan; (2) listings of each agency's responsibilities regarding eligibility, determination of services, and provision of services at placement; (3) review of general and specific procedures (including those for hospitalization and vocational rehabilitation); and (4) miscellaneous information on such topics as release of records, cooperative staff development, and statewide data sharing.
