Distribution of special education services and individualized education program resource information.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the distribution of special education services and individualized education program resource information

This bill would require the Department of Education (DOE) to distribute to schools and post on its website resource information regarding its special education services and individualized education program (IEP) process, including how parents can access the assistance and support of IEP parent members. This resource information would be further distributed by schools to parents or legal guardians of pre-kindergarten and school-aged students with disabilities so that such parents are better informed about special education services provided by DOE.
