PA146 Dyslexia Resources

Under MAISA's direction, a joint workgroup composed of ISD leaders representing GELN (the General Education Leadership Network) and SEILN (Special Education Instructional Leadership Network) began planning in October of 2024, soon after Governor Whitmer signed Public Act 146 into law. This workgroup has created resources to help our 56 ISDs unpack the new requirements as they support Michigan's 835 Public School Districts.
