Every July, we celebrate #DisabilityPrideMonth -- an opportunity to honor the history, achievements, experiences and struggles of the disability community, and to share tips and resources for New Yorkers with disabilities
Our library of free know-your-rights guides, tip sheets, and other resources can help New Yorkers with disabilities and their families navigate NYC Department of Education schools, understand your school-related rights, and advocate successfully for yourself and your child, like our "Guide to Special Education," a key primer to help you understand your rights ▶ https://lnkd.in/eRERjeUn
💡 Tip: the summer is a great time to get your child’s documents in order and prepare to meet with the school team in the Fall. Our online library has resources like an IEP Worksheet that can help you organize your thoughts, figure out what to prioritize, and plan for next year’s goals and services. ▶ https://lnkd.in/eg8vYqRK
