Book excerpt: The Trustee Handbook is a guide to shared governance. It is intended to assist California's 341 county boards of education members as they seek to contribute to the education of Californians in each county and throughout the state. Specifically, the purpose of the Handbook is to provide county trustees with an understanding of the purpose of the county office of education, guidance on the authority of county board members and the county board, insight into the roles and responsibilities of the county board in connection with governance of the county office of education as well as the roles and responsibilities of the county superintendent of schools, and guidance on how a county board can best fulfill its roles and meet its responsibilities in collaboration with the county superintendent of schools. The Trustee Handbook is not a mere update of prior volumes on governance. Instead, it represents the first edition of a new approach to the topic, with new content and commentary focused on the contemporary questions facing county board members and superintendents.What's inside? The historical narrative in Chapter 1 provides an entirely fresh account of the origin story of the county board. The listing of board member duties in Chapter 2 is fully updated, summarizing - in less than two pages - all the Education Code provisions that vest the county board with its various powers, some discretionary and others mandatory. Chapter 3 provides a new perspective on the urgency of collaboration. Chapter 4 offers a set of newly authored FAQs focusing on contemporary questions of law and governance. Based on interviews conducted this year with county board members and superintendents, Chapter 5 presents case studies of successful shared governance. Finally, Chapter 6 provides a listing of available resources and tools.Good governance requires trustees to possess a solid understanding of the issues that come before county boards, an appreciation for the power of system-wide coherence, and a commitment to establishing and pursuing strategic goals. With the Trustee Handbook in hand, county board trustees will be better equipped to work collaboratively with county superintendents to accomplish significant system improvements.

Download or read book Administering the California Special Needs Trust written by Kevin Urbatsch and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-10-21 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Administering a special needs trust (SNT) is a very important job, which often has a profound impact on the life of persons with disabilities. In most cases, the SNT trustee is providing the beneficiary goods and services that improve their quality of life. In some cases, the SNT trustee may be the only person looking to the beneficiarys welfare. Thus, the role of SNT trustee is often a more substantial role than in many other types of trusteeships. The great SNT trustee is a solid financial manager, accountant, record keeper, legal counselor, public benefits advisor, social worker, housing coordinator, civil rights advocate, guardian, and life coach. This is why author Kevin Urbatsch published his book titled Administering the California Special Needs Trust. It has been five years since the book was published. The reception for it far exceeded expectations. There have been excellent reviews of how it has helped SNT trustees, beneficiaries, their families, and professionals who advise persons with disabilities. After reviewing the book, the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) flew Kevin to Washington D.C. to present to federal government bank auditors on what to look for when auditing corporate trustees when banks administer special needs trusts. Other than the numbers that change each year, like SSI or SSDI, the balance of the book was current and up-to-date. However, there were some subjects that were missing in the book plus a couple of big changes that occurred since publication, including the passage of the Affordable Care Act and the ABLE (Achieving a Better Life Experience) Act that provide excellent new tools for the SNT trustee. Kevin recruited several of his professional colleagues to assist in preparing this Second Edition of the book including Michele Fuller, Robert Nuddleman, Herb Thomas, Courtney Kosnik, Scott MacDonald, and Daniel Cutter. With their assistance, Kevin added the following new chapters to the book Paying Caregivers, Paying Trustees Fees, Understanding and Utilizing ABLE Accounts, and Protecting the SNT Trustee. Kevin was also able to update and revise the information in the balance of the book and provide additional forms to make the job of being an SNT trustee safer and more efficient. With the checklists, form documents and law summaries included, Administering the Special Needs Trust contains a wide range of information for those charged with the responsibility of managing an SNT for persons with disabilities.

The third chapter describes the board's responsibility for the establishment of the school's mission, formation of board policy, assessment of the school's performance, financial management, and development and fund raising activities.
