We
are a team of dedicated professionals that seek to see a leveling
of the field with the battle for the lives of our children
and countless others who are affected by alcohol and the ownership
it has of the political and social life of the united states.
These efforts are lead by National Editor Bill A. Cohog. Many
of the other members of this group do not publish their names
due to the negative effects it sometimes bring to their lives
and the lives of their families. |

| When
Your Child Does Not Qualify for Special Education |
USA
- If you have a child that does not qualify for special education
but has a mental or physical impariment which substantially
limits one or more major life activities, including learning,
that child may qualify for special help in a regular classroom
setting under section 504 of IDEA. |
| Training
Teachers about FAS/E |
You
finally have an IEP for your child, and the FAS or ARND is either
diagnosed or recognized. Now how do you get the teachers to
understand that your child needs intervention and teaching strategies
that are specific to his or her disability? The teachers need
to be trained in FAS issues. How do they get the training? You
ask them to get it! Here is advice on how to go about this in
a legal and effective manner. This advice comes from Jamie Erickson,
an advocate trained in special education law (Level III) and
a parent of a child with FAS/E. |
