Summary

Secure the education your child deserves!

Children with learning disabilities have different needs than other kids in special education -- let Nolo's IEP Guide: Learning Disabilities help you make sure those needs are met.

This one-of-a-kind book walks you through the Individual Education Program process, providing all the instructions, suggestions, resources and forms you'll need to understand the special-education system.

Step by step, you'll learn how to:

  • understand your child's rights
  • prepare to make your case
  • untangle eligibility rules and evaluations
  • develop effective IEP goals
  • figure out the best programs, services and teaching strategies
  • get ready for IEP meetings
  • resolve disputes with the school district
  • do legal research on learning-disability issues
  • and much more

The 3rd edition is completely updated to reflect the latest -- and major -- changes to the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), the law that governs special education and the IEP process. It also provides the forms, sample letters and resources you need.
