It's Back to School time, and for a lot of us, that can mean a return to stress related to our tricky kids. According to IDEA, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act "All children are entitled to a free and public education in the least restrictive environment " What does that mean and how does it apply to your tricky kid?

Today Stefanie goes over 504 Plans and IEPs. She explains what they are, who qualifies, how to implement one, and how to make sure the law is being followed.

Hopefully today's episode helps give the tools to advocate for our tricky kids.
