Editorial Reviews

GREAT BOOK! With the worksheets, it's a great way for parents to organize their thoughts. Parents who come to meetings with their thoughts and questions organized are in control and know what services their child is receiving

If you are looking for answers to many of your unsolved questions or would like to know more about special education and the IEP process, I highly recommend this book!

Joan Hourihane

Parents must be armed with accurate information and encouragement. That is what you give us ... empowerment. I am excited about this book. It is clear and easy to understand. The endnotes are a great idea. They give readers a place to go for more information. I can't wait to have "All About IEPs" as another Wrightslaw resource to share with the families I work with.

Did you know that the law requires your child’s IEP team to consider assistive technology? Or that your child is entitled to supports for extracurricular activities? Or that you can ask for training so you can help your kid at home?

These tidbits and hundreds more are packed into Wrightslaw: All About IEPs, a handy book by the team at Wrightslaw.

Accessible enough for a newbie, the book also has information that will surprise the veteran advocate.
