116 Is Your Child Anxious About Valentine’s Day? 3 Reasons Why & How To Help

 

Today’s topic is about being the best advocate you can for  your child!  

Today’s guest:  April Rehrig, took up the mission of empowering parents on how they can navigate every step of the way through their child’s Individualized Educational Program(IEP). This unknown and misunderstood process can be difficult and scary.

YOU, as the parent, are the most qualified advocate!  Sometimes we don’t realize it and need a little help to know that it is true and what to do with that knowledge. 

This is one of the episodes where you will want to take notes because there is a lot of terminology. Plus, you want notes to ensure you will remember what you need to be the best advocate for your child. 

 

Always Cheering you on!
