Who Can Help Me Understand My Legal Rights?


Sometimes it is difficult to decide what is right for your child's developmental and educational programs. There may even be a time when you and the service providers disagree on the best program. Sometimes you may need help in convincing agencies that your child needs special equipment or assistance. At times like these it might be helpful to learn more about your child's legal rights to services. There are several organizations that are available to provide information and some will consult with your about your needs and may help you to advocate for your child.
