Last August, members of ICEC met for the purpose of developing a strategic plan that aligned with CEC while providing clear direction for the Illinois members for the next 3-5 years. With this goal in mind, the executive board met for two days with Cindy L. Beutke with Leadership Results, Inc., and set out to reflect, review and establish a solid strategic direction for ICEC. After much collaboration and discussion, a revised purpose, values, vision, and mission were developed. |

The vision of ICEC is a diverse, dynamic and innovative professional community collaborating with others to ensure that individuals with exceptionalities are valued & included in all aspects of life. ICEC is an influential force in shaping educational policy and practice in the state of Illinois and is recognized for its expertise and leadership. ICEC is the states premier organization focusing on education for individuals with exceptionalities.
The mission of ICEC is to meet the needs of our members by providing professional development, advocacy, networking, and information sharing to improve the quality of life for individuals with exceptionalities and their families.
