The annual evaluation of a Texas regional resource center is presented. The center provides training and technical assistance for school district personnel participating in programs for limited English proficient (LEP) students. Federally funded and housed in the Southwest Educational Development Laboratory, it serves 800 school districts with a LEP enrollment of 194,019 students. It also coordinates activities and services with other agencies serving this population. The report describes the center's administrative structure, staffing, and program design, which include an English literacy resource collection, provision of 141 training and technical assistance sessions, including 93 workshops during the contract year, 1,278 consultations to local education authorities and other entities, and one course for college credit, in cooperation with the University of Houston, Texas. Data on the enrollment, length, content, participants, and results of the workshops are summarized, and other coordination and outreach activities are described. The substantial appended materials include a needs assessment survey, forms and agreements, a workshop schedule, one workshop's agenda and evaluation form, and information on coordination with other agencies.
