IEP Boot Camp -- The Rights of Students with Special Needs

Here's a great resource from Disability Scoop -- the IEP Boot Camp. If you have a child with special needs, you already know what an IEP is, and much of this won't be new to you. But if you don't know about IEPs (it stands for "individualized education plans"), read this to better understand the challenges parents face in getting appropriate services for their school-age children.

Disability Scoop interviewed special education attorney Marcy Tiffany of the law firm Wyner & Tiffany in Torrance, Calif. She has a lot of great advice.
