Campaign to Protect Chapter 33 in Maine
In 2012, Maine updated regulations and created excellent new rules on the use of restraint and seclusion. In December 2012, some Main legislators tried to roll back the changes. Due to hard work by advocates and some lucky timing, compromise legislation was agreed upon. It looks like a very good compromise which preserves the intent of the Chapter 33 updates:

From Restraint and Seclusion to Positive Behavioral Supports, One District at a Time
The goal to look closely at one school system and make a difference there. We start by gathering data. Then we reach out to people in the community. Then we offer resources and support to help them improve practices in their schools.
This campaign is still under development. See the latest thinking on it here: PAPPI From R-S to PBIS
