    What Special Education Can (and Can't) Do
    for Your Child
    Julie Foley & Kim McKay, Parents for
    Parents, Inc.

           Thursday, March 29
    Many parents with children with autism have
    questions and concerns regarding special
    education support for their child that continue
    to change as their child matures. Understanding
    what special education is (and isn't) will help
    you get the most out of your child's school
    experience. Participants will gain a knowledge
    of special education laws, and how they play
    out in local school systems. Emphasis will be on
    working with your child's team to develop
    effective partnerships when developing
    strategies for success for your child in the
    inclusive academic environment.
