Part 2 - Strategies, Tools, and Resources for Maximizing Participation in IEP Meetings
Maximizing the participation of the entire IEP team is essential for creating an effective and individualized educational program. By valuing and integrating the perspectives and expertise of all team members, the IEP process becomes more inclusive, responsive, and successful in meeting the unique needs of each student. In this two-part webinar series, Melanie Reese, Director of CADRE, along with a group of invested educational partners in California, Aubrie Fulk, Michelle Kinner, Peter Aguire (Pathways to Partnership), Cheryl Theis (Disability Rights Education and Defense Fund), and Jennifer Yales and Noreen Lippincott (High Quality IEPs), offer implementable insights to help make IEP meetings more inclusive, collaborative, and focused on the unique needs of every student.
This webinar will dive into practical strategies and address common challenges, equipping IEP teams with tools to foster more productive and inclusive meetings. The California Department of Education will also present information on how they are supporting family participation in the IEP process by enhancing communication, streamlining assistance, and responding to concerns, through their newly formed Constituent’s Office.
