Special Education



Developmental Disabilities Area Board 10 is proud to present the “IEP Strategy Guide – Understanding the Process So You Can Get What You Need in English and Spanish, free downloadable guides. If you have a child with an individual education program (IEP), this guide is for you. Rather than being an exhaustive list of IEP requirements or your rights, this is a guide on strategy. It describes the IEP process and will assist you in advocating more effectively for your child.



The Plan for the IEP (.DOC, .PDF)may help you prepare for your IEP meeting. Putting your thoughts on paper will organize your presentation and ensure easy access to the information you need to present to the IEP team, establishing the foundation for your requests. These documents also complement the “IEP Strategy Guide – Understanding the Process So You Can Get What You Need”.
