Wisconsin Overview In 1993 the governor appointed a Blue Ribbon Task Force on Telecommunications comprised of industry representatives, state and local government agency heads, educators, small business owners, corporate communications users, and private citizens to study Wisconsin's telecommunications uses, needs, and infrastructure. The task force's report, Convergence, Competition, Cooperation, recommended establishing an advanced telecommunications infrastructure throughout the state, creating a statewide information technology plan with an emphasis on telecommunications, and linking individual state agency telecommunications plans and procedures with a comprehensive state plan. It also recommended regulatory policies to foster competition, universal service funding mechanisms, and elimination of policy barriers to telecommunications uses. One outcome of the task force's report is BadgerNet, a project to create a new state telecommunications infrastructure. BadgerNet will consolidate planning efforts and forecast future technology needs in a coordinated way. The Department of Administration is leading the effort to aggregate and enhance the state's independent voice, data and video networks by surveying local units of government, including schools and libraries, on what they want from the new network. BadgerNet is expected to be deployed by July 1997. Ameritech, the state's largest telecommunications provider, has installed about 2,400 miles of fiber optic cable in the state, including 706 miles in the Milwaukee area. Other providers also serve Wisconsin, but there are complaints that Ameritech is stalling on providing access to its network to competitors, as required under the Wisconsin Telecommunications Act (see below).

Working for community support and understanding. Helping you find what your child needs... Advocacy Support Groups Education Children and adolescents with mental health problems are the most under-served disability group. Approximately 12 percent of children under 18 nationwide, 7.5 to 9.5 million, suffer from problems that warrant mental health treatment. However, 70 to 80 percent of these children get inappropriate mental health services or no help at all. And, perhaps more unfortunate, is the stigma associated with having a child with an emotional, behavioral, or mental disorder. Parents may blame themselves and may be too embarrassed to discuss the possibility of a mental disorder with an outside source. There are no simple answers. But that is why we are here to ease the frustration of finding help. We are a statewide not-for-profit organization run by families for families that include children and adolescents who have emotional, behavioral, and mental disorders. Today, thousands of families turn to us. We help parents develop skills necessary to advocate for their families and children. Wisconsin Family Ties continues to be run by families like yours and is the only resource and support agency of its kind in Wisconsin. We know what you're going through. We're here to help empower you to find the level of care you feel your child needs. Call us today.

As Internet technologies transform our educational experiences, so these technologies create a wide chasm. There is a very real divide between students who do and do not have access to the Internet in education today. As our nation grapples with issues of physical access to hardware, software, the Web, and a National Information Infrastructure, decision-makers must be mindful of those with different issues of access. These individuals are those with disabilities and their issues of access are related to the environment of the Internet today.

Telecommunications/Information Technology On this page: Overview Federal Final Rules Federal IT Accessibility Initiatives States' Responsibilities ... Section 508 Organization Resources Overview In 1998, Congress amended the Rehabilitation Act and strengthened provisions covering access to information in the Federal sector for people with disabilities. As amended, Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act requires access to the Federal government's electronic and information technology. The law applies to all Federal agencies when they develop, procure, maintain, or use electronic and information technology. Federal agencies must ensure that this technology is accessible to employees and the public. The law directs the Access Board to develop access standards that will become part of the Federal procurement regulations. The scope of Section 508 is limited to the federal sector. It does not apply to the private sector, nor does Section 508 impose requirements on the recipients of federal funds. However, the Department of Education interprets the Assistive Technology Act (AT Act), to require states receiving assistance under the AT Act State Grant program to comply with Section 508, including the Access Board's standards. The Department of Education, the agency responsible for administering the AT Act, plans to issue guidance to explain specifically how the proposed standards would apply to the states for purposes of the AT Act. Thus, while Section 508, on its face, is "limited to the federal sector," recipients of federal funds under the AT Act must also comply with Section 508.

Greene, Ph.D. Senior Fellow, Manhattan Institute for Policy Research Greg Forster, Ph.D. Senior Research Associate, Manhattan Institute for Policy Research Marcus A. Winters Research Associate, Manhattan Institute for Policy Research Executive Summary Charter schools—public schools that are exempt from many of the procedural regulations that apply to regular public schools—are a widespread but poorly-studied form of education reform. With nearly 2,700 charter schools now educating more than 684,000 children nationwide, policymakers and parents need to know how the education charter schools provide compares to that provided by regular public schools. Assessing the academic performance of charter schools is difficult, because many charter schools are targeted toward specific populations such as at-risk students, disabled students, and juvenile delinquents. This makes it very challenging for researchers to draw a fair comparison—comparing targeted charter schools to regular public schools is like comparing apples and zebras. As a result, there are very few reliable research findings on the academic quality of charter schools as compared to regular public schools.
