Join us online on Monday, October 20, 2025, for our Family Empowerment Series training "Preparing for an IEP Meeting."
This session will teach us how to prepare for your child's IEP meeting. After the session, you'll know what or who to bring, which questions to ask, your student's special education rights, and more! By the end of this training, you'll feel well-equipped to be another special education expert in the room and your child's best advocate for their needs!
We will cover important topics such as
- What to expect from an IEP meeting,
- What to do in advance of the meeting and how to prepare,
- Tips for a successful IEP meeting, and
- What happens after a meeting and how to prepare for the remainder of the school year.
