Ep. 17: Special Education Recovery Services and Legal Support for Students on IEPs in the age of COVID

In this episode of the Autism Empowerment Podcast, we are talking about educational support and recovery services for students in pandemic times and the age of COVID. Many parents and children involved in Special Education and general education services are concerned in some way about academic regression, staying on track and progressing forward.  For students on Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) or 504 plans, we’re going to take a look at options available for students to catch up. We'll explore the differences between Compensatory Education, Recovery Services (a new term) and Extended School Year Services. We're going to discuss when a student might qualify and how each service may help support children on the autism spectrum and with other learning disabilities.   For transcripts and Show Notes, please visit www.AutismEmpowermentPodcast.org
