A Comprehensive and Accessible Guide to the IEP Process 

The IEP process can be confusing, frustrating, and time-consuming. Understanding what your child or student needs is one thing, but getting them help and resources can be another thing altogether. Drawing on decades of experience, Jennifer Laviano and Julie Swanson are uniquely positioned to guide both parents and teachers through the IEP process. 

The IEP Guidefor All breaks down the legal and standardized language and will leave parents feeling confident while navigating the IEP process. Whether you're a parent, a first-time educator, or an experienced educator, this guide will help get students the resources they need and highlight what everyone needs to know about the IEP process.

"A must-have for teachers and parents, and I've sat on both sides of the table."—Allie Grafman, CT Parent Advocate and former coordinator of Special Education
