Special Education can offer students the opportunity to learn school subjects regardless of a student's disability; in other words, it can be the great equalizer that can get students with diagnosed disabilities or learning impairment issues to have the same opportunity for learning as their peers. This is a great intended goal; however, there is a lack of knowledge in our communities about Special Education and how it can be used for the benefit of students.

This book provides the guidance needed to navigate the Special Education arena; it is written by "boots on the ground" authors with many years of experience in this field. By the time you are finished, you will be an expert in the field of Special Education.
