Understanding Special Education Basics, a in person presentation at IL SLD Support Project - EmpowerED 2025 Annual Conference
Join me at the EmpowerED 2025 Annual Conference, where I will be presenting Understanding Special Education Basics. This session is designed for parents, caregivers, educators, and professionals who want to gain a deeper understanding of the special education process, legal rights, and key components of IEPs.
Topics include:
✅ Child Find & Evaluations – How students are identified and assessed
✅ Eligibility Categories – Understanding specific learning disabilities and other classifications
✅ IEP Components & Timelines – What must be included and when
✅ Accommodations vs. Modifications – How they impact student learning
✅ Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) & Parent Advocacy – Ensuring student success
If you're attending the EmpowerED 2025 Conference, I’d love for you to join my session! This is a great opportunity to learn more about navigating the special education system in Illinois and advocating for student success.
