Referral Process

At-risk and struggling students can be referred to the program by their families, schools, health professionals, and/or state and local agencies by contacting FDLRS/UF MDTP at (352) 294-8248.

Parents, teachers, and other school personnel will be asked to complete a referral packet to provide pertinent information about the student’s educational background, school attendance, current and prior interventions and response to interventions, prior assessments and evaluations, physical and mental health, and medical history. This referral information allows for the initial determination of specific assessment/evaluation to guide consultation with parents, schools, and healthcare and related providers aimed at improving student engagement, learning, and outcomes.
