Student-Led IEP Meetings
Student-led IEPs reflect practices that support active student participation in IEP development and processes in which students take a leadership role in making decisions about their future. Throughout the IEP process, IEP team members (including the student) assess student strengths and needs and develop goals. Watch our newsletters and website for student-led IEP workshops this fall.
