Comprehensive Needs Assessment (CNA)
The primary purpose of the Comprehensive Needs Assessment (CNA) is to guide the overall design of the Migrant Education Program (MEP) on a statewide basis. The CNA helps state education agencies (SEAs) and local operating agencies (LOAs)/local educational agencies (LEAs) prioritize the needs of migrant children by determining the specific services that will help migrant children achieve the State’s measurable outcomes and performance targets.
