Know Your Rights

If you live in the United States, your child is entitled to a variety of educational services under the federal law known as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).

Knowing what your child is entitled to under IDEA, and under federal and state regulations as well, can be invaluable to you in understanding what to ask for, what to do when you have concerns, and how to be an effective advocate for your child.
