Re: Educable Mentally Retarded in Rantoul, IL

I have little idea of what information or support is available in
Rantoul, but I do know the the University of Illinois in
Champaign-Urbana has an excellent special ed department as well as
fine educational psychology people.  The psychology department may
also have a program for training school psychologists.  It's been a
long time since I was there (would you believe 1950?) but I'm sure
there is still much there.  Try a psychology or education clinic.
The library is also excellent, and I'm sure you could use material
there (and copy some of it) though they may not let you borrow
things.

Rantoul is not that far from Champaign that you couldn't make a day trip of
it.  Maybe phone first to see where to go and who to see.
