Assembly Bill (AB) 2657 (Chapter 998, Statutes of 2018) went into effect on January 1, 2019, adding Sections 49005–49006.4 to California’s Education Code requiring LEAs to collect and report to the CDE all incidents in which a student, with or without an individualized education program (IEP) or 504 plan, is restrained (mechanically or physically) or secluded, as defined in law. This requirement extends to any student placed by the LEA in a Non-Public School (NPS) pursuant to their IEP. You can find more information regarding these reporting requirements as well as definitions of what constitutes restraint and seclusion here.
