Who are we?

The Minnesota Low Incidence Projects are designed to assist school districts across the state in fulfilling federal requirements in the areas of implementation of IDEA, professional development, and insuring the availability of high quality staff in the low incidence areas of Special Education. Technical assistance is offered as a regular function of the project. In Minnesota there are seven disability categories that are considered low incidence: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH), DeafBlindness (DB), Developmental Cognitive Disabilities(DCD), Physically Impaired (PI),Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Vision Impairment (VI), and Severe Multiple Impairment (SMI).
