The paper examines the status and issues involved in collaboration between special education and regular education, a relationship critical to the implementation of P.L. 94-142, the Education for All Handicapped Children Act. A model for interagency collaboration is applied to the situation, with responsibilities, utilization of resources, and procedures examined in terms of current practice and need. A chart outlines recommended approaches to collaboration through personnel development, demonstrations and model sites, technical assistance networks, new legislation, and an attitude change campaign.
