Description
It’s common for parents to wonder how the IEP process works and how to best advocate for their child’s needs. The truth is, the more parents know about IEPs and how they’re put into place, the more active a role they can take in the process.
In this episode, Julian speaks with IEP expert Jamilah F. Bashir, MEd. Listen as Jamilah explains:
- What the IEP process looks like
- Common challenges families of color often experience when advocating for their child
- And ways schools and families can build positive relationships
