Notice of procedural safeguards for special education required.

This bill (HF 3742) requires Minnesota's Department of Education to create an oral translation of procedural safeguards notices for parents or guardians of children with disabilities. It directly affects families of students receiving special education services in Minnesota schools. The key provision mandates the development of an accessible oral translation version of existing rights notices, ensuring clearer communication. The requirement will take effect for the 2026-2027 school year.
