Field Ops Memo 2009-12: TAFDC

To increase the number of clients who are assessed for learning disabilities, DTA has developed a process for ESP providers to: offer Learning Disability (LD) screenings to those clients whom they believe may have learning issues; and help those clients access the Department’s Learning Disability assessment process. With this new initiative even if the client has received a screening from the Department, the client may be screened again by his or her ESP provider. Beginning March 1, this service is being offered in the Newmarket Square and Dudley Square TAOs. Procedures in Field Operations Memo 2005-58 for LD screenings should continue to be followed in all other TAOs.
