Episode 7: The Three Prongs of Eligibility

Have an initial eligibility meeting coming up? Perhaps you have a "tri" or a "re-evaluation" coming up? Maybe you feel like you need to request an evaluation. Are you curious or worried on if your child will qualify for services? Hear from Christina Nelson, MA, CCC, SLP of Steadfast Speech and Language Services about the three boxes that have to be checked in order for a student to receive services through special education (through an IEP). Parents of children with disabilities like autism, developmental delay, speech and language impairment, emotional disability, or down syndrome, hearing impairment, orthopedic impairment or even struggles you don't know quite how to articulate yet can learn the eligibility process.
