IEP and The Power of Three: You, Your Child, Your Knowledge

This resource is intended to give parents, guardians, and caregivers of school-age children a strong foundation of knowledge about the special education system and the Individualized Education Program (IEP). We aim to help you be proactive in setting your child up to succeed and not be reactive when struggles arise. This resource is not intended to offer legal advice but to give you the tools you need to be an active participant in the special education process and to advocate for the person you love.

You will find information on the basics of the IEP process, eligibility, IEP development, accommodations and modifications, behavior skills training, dispute resolution options, and more! There are even downloadable resources to create your own IEP binder!
