Why it matters
Paraprofessionals frequently provide direct support required by students with disabilities. Persistent vacancies can prevent schools from delivering services in students’ Individualized Education Programs.
Who is affected
Approximately 26,000 school paraprofessionals, students with disabilities, classroom teachers, and families.
What happens next
The bill must complete the local legislative process, including mayoral action, before the Education Department determines eligibility and administers four installments.
