Testimony

(3/07) Katie Hine, Supervisor of the Southeast Kansas Pilot Project to Replicate the Oregon Model of Intervention With Antisocial Youth Families testified before the Kansas State Board of Education Tuesday, February 13, 2007. Dr. Hine spoke in support of the proposed regulations for the use of physical restraint and seclusion rooms in schools. The proposed regulations identify the conditions under which seclusionary time-out and physical restraint are applicable, and specify the steps intended to guide the ongoing use of these potentially restrictive procedures. Dr. Hine proposed also that the regulations include a process for objective human rights review and monitoring of behavior support programs utilizing restrictive procedures.
