The Inspiration
Need Addressed By Project
Through this program, the community will be able to identify the children who are not receiving adequate services, assist a large number of these children through legal representation, and provide more appropriate services for students. Additionally, it will encourage the school board to do a more thorough job enforcing the IEPs.
