Phase 1: Advocacy
The "front-end", build the framework of your case.
In Phase 1, the SLA Parent Support Team will:
- Help you determine appropriate placements and services for your child
- Assist you in obtaining appropriate expert evaluations
- Help you communicate effectively with your local school district
- Accompany you to the CSE Meeting
- Present your case to the CSE team
- Act as ‘eyes and ears’, taking contemporaneous notes for later, possible testimony
- Accompany you to visit and evaluate the CSE-recommended programs
- Help you formulate all necessary written communication with the CSE
- Generate and submit a Request for Impartial Hearing to the local school board if needed
