RE: [NPSO]: What data do you plan to collect?

[Damian, Glenn H]

The New Mexico survey includes students with significant intellectual and cognitive disabilities through the facilitation of interviewers who have expertise in working with people with severe disabilities.  In instances where formers students are not able to answer questions, parents/ guardians are asked to assist in completing the questions.   Glenn Damian   From: owner-npsoserv@lists.uoregon.edu [mailto:owner-npsoserv@lists.uoregon.edu] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 28, 2006 4:22 PM To: npsoserv@lists.uoregon.edu Subject: Re: [NPSO]: What data do you plan to collect?   In a message dated 7/28/2006 6:13:01 P.M.
