A Special Education Resource

The Community Advisory Council (CAC) is a Special Education resource to help provide an individual plan for Special Education students.

The CAC is appointed by the Mid-Alameda County Special Education Local Plan Area (MACSELPA), representing both public and private schools, for Special Education students in San Leandro, San Lorenzo, Castro Valley, and Hayward.

The CAC represents the unique interests and needs of Special Education. CAC collaborates between students, Educators and community members and the family. CAC helps families with the Individual Education Process (IEP) to provide an individual education plan for the student.

Regular CAC Meetings are held five times a year and sponsor three educational workshops per year.  Accessing the workshop meeting, such as IEP Process and participating effectively are on Zoom Links.  Contact Michelle Miller, MAC/SELPA Staff Technician, for assistance at 510-537-3000, ext. 1220.

If you are transferring your child from another school or they are getting promoted and you need a IEP or help, contact Michelle Miller. She will provide information for you.

CAC meetings are open to the public held on Zoom. Please contact Michelle Miller for more information (510-537-3000, ext. 1220) and see what we are about and how we can help answer your questions. The upcoming Workshop is on Thursday, May 16, via Zoom.
