In this episode, I go local in this discussion of special education with past school committee member and experienced special needs mother, Stacey Jackson. We go in-depth on Stacey's hands-on experience advocating for her daughter, from early intervention to high school and beyond, her experience with mediation, working with your child's IEP team collaboratively for a successful inclusion as well as alternative placements. Stacey also provides us with an inside look at the often misunderstood budget for all education, including special ed. The limitations as well as successes within a rather large regional school district and how working to find solutions that is not only helpful for all involved but cost-effective.
