Disability & Education Laws (Current as of July 2017) (Center for Parent Information & Resources, CPIR)
Description:
Since the 1960s, there has been a virtual avalanche of federal legislation that relates directly or indirectly to individuals with disabilities, particularly children and youth. These form the core of current protection against discrimination and current guarantees of equal educational opportunity that individuals with disabilities have in our nation.
