Parenting a Child with Special Needs (ND20)

When parents learn that their child has a disability, they begin an unplanned journey. Starting with the article “You Are Not Alone,” this News Digest is written expressly for parents to respond to their information needs and offer perspectives from other parents. Professionals who work with families will find it helpful in understanding more about how having a child with a disability can affect the family. 2003, 16 pages.


Related Services (ND16)

Children with disabilities who are eligible for special education may also receive related services according to their individual needs. This may include such services as occupational and physical therapy, speech language pathology, transportation, and special health care services. Learn more about the related services listed in IDEA and the process by which students can obtain them. 2001, 20 pages.
