This final report describes activities and accomplishments of Project REALIGN, a three-year model inservice training project to expand the capacity of early childhood staff, administrators and families to work together toward improved education for all young children and maximizing the inclusion of young children with disabilities in the school community. The project has two primary components: (1) the inservice training process, a year-long school-based, staff-driven professional development effort to promote collaborative learning among professionals and parents; and (2) the facilitator development program, a program to prepare selected teachers to take leadership roles in the REALIGN inservice training process. Approximately 165 staff and parents from five public elementary schools in Fairfax County, Virginia, participated in the inservice training component. Fifteen teachers were trained as facilitators under the second component. Evaluation findings demonstrate positive outcomes at the individual level, the school community level, and the programmatic level. The project also resulted in development of two products and dissemination in various formats. Individual sections of the report address the project's goals and objectives, the inservice training component, the facilitator development component, project impact, and future activities. Appendices include sample program documents and evaluation instruments. (DB)
