Has the new school year brought up questions about your child's special education supports and services?

Join us on next Thursday September 11 for IEP: A Closer Look. This online workshop for parents and caregivers takes a deeper dive into the key parts of the IEP.

Get a better understanding of their IEP by taking a closer look at the core areas and how they build on each other. Learn to use the IEP process to address your concerns. Time is set aside to ask your questions.

If you can't join us this month, this webinar is offered monthly this school year, scheduled at different times of day to meet the needs of parents.
