This article offers one response.Drawing on the best practices of consumer-driven health programs for people withdisabilities, we offer a Disability-Competent Health System model. The model integrateshealth and social services to maximize opportunities for independent living and person-centered care. This approach is an opportunity for the independent living movement to address health-related issues without subscribing to the medical model.

A survey was mailed to a random sample of 480 teachers and principals from elementary-level public and private day treatment and residential schools. A total of 271 (56.5%) principals and 229 (47.7%) teachers responded. Teachers and principals reported education and certification generally consistent with professionals in public schools. Also, most teachers and principals had been at their current school five yeas or less. Students were involved with foster care and juvenile corrections at higher rates than youth in the general population. Students also commonly returned to less restrictive settings upon exit. Results and implications are discussed.
