The State Performance Plan (SPP) process has contributed to an increased focus on improving State Dispute Resolution Systems. CADRE’s DR SIPE (Dispute Resolution System Integration and Performance Enhancement) provides a mechanism for evaluating and improving state performance across functions for dispute resolution systems (complaints, mediation, due process hearings, etc.).  This session will offer a broad overview of DR SIPE and describe recent application of this process in Texas involving partnerships with CADRE and the Southeast Regional Resource Center.   This effort has led to the development of a Jobs-Alike Network. Ample time will be allowed for questions and comments.
