TAcommunities provide resources and assistance to the states on issues that impact students with disabilities and also extend current TA (technical assistance) to the states through peer-led collaboration on such topics as the SPP/APR process. TAcommunities is the home for Communities of Practice (CoP) that are supported by the Technical Assistance and Dissemination (TA&D) Network, and the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP).
The purpose of the TA&D Network is to promote academic achievement and improve results for children with disabilities by providing technical assistance, model demonstration projects, dissemination of useful information, and implementation activities that are supported by scientifically based research.
