ID&R - COVID-19

The 2019 Novel Coronavirus pandemic has impacted migrant program identification and recruitment (ID&R) efforts throughout Florida. To address the challenges imposed on ID&R by the pandemic, the Florida Migrant Education Program and the ID&R Office have developed a special Certificate of Eligibility (COE) Completion protocol that allows the COE to be completed via phone or video interview. This will let recruiters continue their work while maintaining their own safety as well as the safety of our migrant families. Every person completing the COE must follow the COVID-19 COE Protocol as outlined in the document.
