Tune in to Parent Training Specialist Glenesha Milner every Monday at 1 PM EST from April 29, 2024, to May 27, 2024, except for Monday, May 13, 2024, for an informative four-module presentation on the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).

IDEA is a federal law requiring schools to serve the educational needs of eligible students with disabilities. This presentation will provide an overview of IDEA, in which participants will learn about the thirteen disability categories covered under IDEA and how each part of IDEA (A, B, C, and D) deals with a specific area of the law. This presentation will also provide a glimpse at IDEA’s six major principles, focusing on student and parental rights as well as the responsibilities of public schools for students with disabilities.

Please join our AI presenter at 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. EST.

Beginning the Journey I
Each child grows at an individual pace, but research shows that a child’s first three years are the most important time for learning. Early Intervention (EI) is a key step in helping eligible infants and toddlers, from birth to three years of age, onto the right path to learn and develop to their full potential. This presentation educates families of infants and toddlers birth to 18 months, or those children just qualifying for EI services, on the nuts and bolts of developing, in partnership with Early Intervention providers, an Individualized Family Support Plan (IFSP).

Beginning the Journey II
What happens after the 3rd birthday and your child transitions from Early Steps (Part C of IDEA) to the local school system (Part B of IDEA)? In this presentation, we will go over step by step what to expect when your child, if eligible, transitions out of Early Steps with their Individualized Family Support Plan (IFSP) and into the school system/Pre-K with their first Individualized Education Plan (IEP).
