Voices from the Field: State Education Agency and Parent Center Collaboration

Colorado Department of Education and PEAK

This Voices from the Field interview series features select OSEP federally-funded parent centers and state education agencies who have well-established and high-functioning collaborative relationships. In October of 2021, CADRE staff interviewed leaders from the Colorado Department of Education (Mary Ann Fleury, Ph.D.) and PEAK (Michele Williers and Ann Wilson) to learn more about what makes their partnership so effective. This hour-long interview provides viewers with tips and takeaways that may help others improve their own relationships and establish new ones. Use the companion question guide below to navigate the interview. An expanded timestamp outline, offering specific responses, is also available for download. CADRE is extremely grateful to Mary Ann, Michele and Ann for devoting their time and energy to this interview.
