CDLE entered into a statewide Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Rocky Mountain Service Employment Redevelopment (RMSER) (167 grantee) and Migrant Education for inter–agency referrals and data sharing. These MOUs have established and demonstrated effective coordination of outreach and increased registration activities for all service providers. These MOUs are being evaluated on a yearly basis between all parties involved to change, adjust or change agreements as needed to better serve the MSFW population.
