Today’s episode is a replay of Lynzy Coughlin’s podcast, Motherhood Meets Medicine, where Vickie recently appeared as a recent guest. She provided a lot of helpful information for parents about a 504 plan or when an IEP is in place. You will learn what rights parents have in these cases, along with what a parent can ask and advocate for in their child’s education. Join us!

Show Highlights:

  • What led Vickie into special education law
  • Why Vickie and Amanda decided to provide pro bono and low bono rates at their practice
  • How the Inclusive Education Project came to be to help spread information about the law, the rights of parents, and to normalize the conversation around special education
  • What the IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act) provides as a federal law and how state laws can vary widely
  • Where parents can begin when an IEP is first put in place
  • Why it’s frustrating from a parent’s perspective to understand 504s and IEPs
  • Recommended resources to help parents prepare for IEP meetings and understand the law and their rights: www.wrightslaw.com and www.inclusiveeducationproject.org
  • A rundown of parents’ rights in requesting frequent updates, identifying accommodations that work best, and requesting additions to the IEP
  • What issues parents might face that would signal that the help of a special education attorney is needed
  • Vickie’s advice to parents: “Trust your gut. You are the expert on your child.”
