IEPs: Special education terms and your legal rights
Manage episode 414461369 series 3493275
If your child qualifies for an IEP, it will come with many legal rights and protections. But with names like “FAPE” and “prior written notice,” things can get confusing quickly.
Still, it’s really important for parents to understand these terms — and that's where this podcast comes in to help.
In this episode of Understood Explains, host Juliana Urtubey breaks down some key terms and explains the legal rights that come with an IEP, or Individualized Education Program.
