Individualized Education Program (IEP) Advisory Services
If you’re the parent of a child with special health care needs, you know that your child’s Individualized Education Program (IEP) has a considerable impact on his or her future. However, the process to develop an IEP is complex, and the IEP itself is generally filled with many unfamiliar terms and statistics. It can be difficult as a parent to know how to participate most effectively in this very important process.
If you’re a parent feeling overwhelmed by the IEP process, you’re not alone! We’re here to help you every step of the way.
Medical Home Plus is dedicated to helping parents to be fully effective partners in a positive and constructive IEP process. We offer IEP Advisory Services tailored to the needs of each family. These services are provided by physicians and special education professionals who are highly experienced in the hands-on implementation of IEPs as well as the IEP development process itself. Our professional staff has decades of experience working with children with autism, ADHD, behavioral conditions, and the full range of other special health care needs.
Our IEP Advisors can:
-Help you prepare for the IEP process by explaining it in a way that’s easy to understand
-Review your child’s previous IEP or other educational progress documents to begin to identify topics for productive discussion
-Review the draft IEP with you prior to the IEP meeting
-Attend the IEP meeting with you to provide support and to help you realize the full benefit of this meeting
-Advise you on how best to work with your child’s IEP team to finalize the IEP
-Review educational progress documents with you during the year
