Abstract
State departments of education (SEAs) and other agencies attempt to meet the informational needs of parents of handicapped persons and others interested in special education. Since the passage of PL 94-142, SEAs have been improving the quality and content of the print material they disseminate concerning disabled persons. This study indicates the level of importance various professional (including SEA directors of special education) and parental groups attribute to a set of criteria for print material development and dissemination. Also the differences of perception between professionals and parents are analyzed regarding the criteria and an actual piece of print material. Implications for SEA information development practice and parental involvement in such activity are discussed.
