In this webinar we will discuss the IEP planning process and the school’s obligation to make an offer of a Free Appropriate Public Education (“FAPE”) in the Least Restrictive Environment (“LRE”). We will cover topics like the structure of an IEP, parent and student rights under special education law, and how to self-advocate using the legal framework. From present levels to placement, understanding the IEP planning process can help you communicate concerns and advocate for better outcomes. Presented by Seth Schwartz, Esq., special education attorney at Brightside Law Group.
