Session Overview

Students with learning disabilities often struggle in school. Accommodations ensure that students with disabilities have equal and meaningful access to education. Parents play a vital role in ensuring that students are accommodated in the classroom and provided with the tools to participate fully. Our discussion will focus on building awareness for parents and caregivers about the benefits of advocacy and how to engage with teachers and school administrators. We will examine some of the barriers students face when accessing accommodations and ways to support students on their journey to self-advocacy.
