At an IEP Annual Review meeting, the first thing that you're handed is a thick packet. It's called the Notice of Parents Rights under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). It's thirteen pages and it is confusing!
Parent to Parent of Georgia, an organization that offers a variety of services to Georgia families of children with disabilities, is offering a FREE parent workshop. It's called:
SIFTING THROUGH YOUR PARENTAL RIGHTS
Date: Thursday, September 29, 2011
Time: 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Place: Franklin County Board of Education
280 Busha Road
Carnesville, GA 30521
This free workshop will give you access to better understanding your rights as a parent. This will help ensure your child receives a free and appropriate education in the environment best suited for his or her needs.
You can expect to gain a basic knowledge about parent rights under IDEA, including confidentiality, notice, consent, surrogate parents, evaluations, and dispute resolution methods such as mediation and due process.
For more information please contact Teresa Bruce. She's our Parent Mentor and she's fabulous. Her number is: (706) 384-4554 ext. 11351
Hope to see you there!
