State Support Teams are regional offices funded by the Ohio Department of Education that provide professional development and technical assistance to school districts on special education and student support, with State Support Team 3 covering Cuyahoga County specifically. Ohio has 16 State Support Teams covering different regions of the state, and families can find their region's team for school-district-level special education questions. Differentiator: this is a regional model that exists in every part of Ohio under different team numbers — families outside Cuyahoga County should search '[their region] State Support Team Ohio' to find their local team.
