This paper responds to a request asking for a Response to Intervention (RtI) background information and a scan of what states are doing in this area. This paper presents summaries that provide basic information about the status of state RtI initiatives in each of the southeastern states. The information was collected from State Education Agency (SEA) websites and the websites of entities working with the SEA. Information was collected in July-August 2007, and therefore represents what was publicly available about RtI and the SEAs at that time. (Contains 59 footnotes.)
