22-019 Code Vt. R. 22-000-019-X
These rules are jointly promulgated by the Vermont Departments of Mental Health and Mental Retardation (DMHMR) and Social and Rehabilitation Services (SRS) and the Vermont State Board of Education to implement the provisions of Act 203 of the 1990 Adjourned Session. It is the intent of these rules that improved coordination among the three agencies and the local service providers will result in improved services for children and adolescents with a severe emotional disturbance.
Nothing in the provisions of this chapter shall be construed to grant an entitlement to any child or adolescent with a severe emotional disturbance to receive any educational, residential, mental health or other service until and unless the general assembly further provides that such children and adolescents or any subgroup thereof are so entitled.
