[QUOTE="buddy, post: 475611, member: 12886"] I'm sure more people will pop in and help too. NAMI is a great idea as well as the other places mentioned to look for an educational advocate. There are lawyers who can help, but expensive and some advocates are paid too but just try to find the ones thru parent advocacy orgnizations. Make sure they are versed in special education laws and procedures. Some websites to check out are PACER (and if you are comfortable putting your state in people from that state can give you specific places to call) which is in MN but consults nationally. Their webstie is [url=http://www.pacer.org/]PACER Center - Assistance for Children with Disabilities, Teen Bullying, Parent Programs[/url] [URL="http://www.pacer.org"][/URL] and you will find TONS of information on behavior plans and laws etc....federal law is federal law. yes some states add but they must meet the minimum requirements in federal Special Education. law (IDEA) Another amazing website is [URL]http://www.wrightslaw.com/[/URL] hang in there...you are doing a great job, it is crazy that feeling of banging your head against the wall year after year... [url=http://www.braininjurymn.org/]Brain Injury Association of Minnesota[/url] this has good Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) information and may lead you to your state or a national site [/QUOTE]
