Join us online on Monday, June 29th, 2026, for our Family Empowerment Series training "IEP vs. 504 Plan: Which is Right for My Child?"
In this session, we'll help you understand how to navigate the special education settings offered in DC public and public charter schools.
We will cover important topics such as
- How a child is assessed for a disability.
- How eligibilty is determined and if they qualify for a 504 plan or an IEP?
- What is an IEP?
- What is a 504 Plan?
- How does either support the student?
