Self Directed IEP Resources (PEATC)

Description:

Self Directed IEPs - A Parent Factsheet and Self-Directed IEPs - Your child's IEP (Individualized Education Program) is more than a plan for their education—it’s a roadmap to their future. Encouraging them to take a self-directed approach to their IEP can help them develop critical self-advocacy skills, build confidence, and ensure their voice is heard in planning for their goals after high school.

PEATC offers a variety of resources to help families and youth navigate self-directed IEPs and foster self-advocacy.
