If you are the parent or guardian of a child (including an infant) with disabilities; the parent or guardian of a student who is attending or attended a California school at any time since January 1, 2008, you should be aware a federal court has ordered the release of personal protected information, including behavior, health and discipline reports, Social Security numbers and home addresses to a nonprofit which claims it wants to ensure disabled students are being treated fairly under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and other laws.
The court order states that information will not be made available to the public, but this puts the responsibility in the hands of the nonprofit.
You can file an objection to information related to your child and your family being released. However, it is unclear whether the objection will prevent your child’s information from being released.
You must print and fill out a form or mail a private letter to the judge. There is no electronic means of notifying the court. Any objection must be received by the court by April 1, 2016.
DOWNLOAD AND PRINT THE FORM THAT MUST BE COMPLETED AND SUBMITTED TO THE COURT BY APRIL 1, 2016

California law and regulation requires that regional centers display on their Web sites information about the dollar value of services they purchase for clients. These data (called "purchase of service" or "POS" data) must be reported separately by clients' ethnic/racial group, langauge and diagnosis.
