Special Education Services

 

Special Education is governed by the Individuals with Disabilities with Education Act (IDEA). It is imperative that families and individuals with disabilities are familiar with this legislation and their rights thereunder.

• Was your child denied eligibility for Special Education?
• Is your child’s individualized Education Plan appropriate?
• Is your child’s post secondary transition plan in place?
• Are you familiar with the federal transition plan mandate under IDEA for school to post-school activities?
• Are you aware of public benefits available (Social Security Income, Medicaid, etc.)?
• Is there a Special Needs Trust in place for available assets?

 

We can assist you with issues relating to the following:

• Eligibility for Special Education Services
• Appropriate Special Education Planning: Individualized Education Program & 504 Planning
• Preparation and/or attendance at Individualized Education Plan Team Meeting
• Transition Services: Post secondary educational and vocational planning
