The Mid-Atlantic Comprehensive Center (MACC@WestEd) is part of a federal technical assistance network of 15 Regional Comprehensive Centers and seven supporting Content Centers. This network of centers works closely with the Regional Educational Laboratories and other technical assistance providers to ensure effective coordination of services to SEAs and their constituents. The U.S. Department of Education selected WestEd to operate the MACC in October 2012 to provide direct assistance to the states of Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia. MACC@WestEd works in partnership with states in building their capacity to implement state-level initiatives and support district- and school-level efforts intended to improve education outcomes for all students, close achievement gaps, and raise the quality of instruction.
