The Supporting Innovative Practices (SIP) Project partners with the Riverside County Office of Education, El Dorado County Office of Education, and the California Department of Education to expand opportunities for students with disabilities. For over 10 years, SIP has worked with county offices, SELPAs, and school districts to improve least restrictive environments and student achievement. We offer free events, resources, and webinars, and collaborate with over 100 districts to develop customized plans and foster innovative policies.

Mission and Vision

We are committed to upholding human dignity by challenging exclusionary practices through systemic change and advocacy, ensuring all students, particularly those with disabilities, have the access, support, and opportunities needed to achieve fair outcomes and a true sense of belonging.
