The ERIC database lists over 1600 articles and documents on Resource Access
Projects (RAP).
http://www.askeric.org/Eric/index.html
As to web sites, there does not seem to be a lot of information in the WWW.
I found the following site related to Head Start:
http://nccic.org/ccb/ccb-so95/headstrt.html
Two more Head Start Resource Access Projects sites:
http://www.osc.edu/CSNP/HDRSRAP1.HTML

Albeit my findings for RAP were admittedly poor, I think I found you an
excellent site on The Paraphrasing Strategy:

Another good site you might wish to visit is The Language Centre's

One last mention, Melissa. The University of Kansas' Center for Research
on Learning is a gold mine of information on teaching children with
disabilities. I recommend you wander all through this site:
