MIAT and SNAP ensure the safe placement of children with special needs in CYS programs and activities. 

Teen students talking

The Multi-disciplinary Inclusion Action Team (MIAT) and Special Needs Accommodation Process (SNAP) ensure children with special needs are placed safely in CYS programs and activities.

Here’s how it works:

  • Parents provide medical notes, allergies and medication info, as well as their IEP/IFSP or 504 plans.
  • The team reviews health, safety, and support needs.
  • Children with special needs are placed in the least restrictive, safest setting possible.
  • Reviews occur annually or sooner if your child needs a change. Parents may request a new review at any time.
