> REED'S NEW MANUAL:

>

> STOP! ARE YOU REALLY READY TO ASK FOR A DUE PROCESS HEARING?

> MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PREPARED SO THAT YOU CAN GET

> WHAT YOUR CHILD REALLY NEEDS

> This new 111 page manual draws on 's 30-plus years of

> experience in special education law, and especially IDEA Hearings.

> emphasizes that you have to prepare before you ask for a Hearing,

> not after. If the parent uses the right steps in that preparation, our

> experience has been that the parent can get what their child needs

> without the time and expense of going all the way through the Hearing

> and Court process. explains why your complaint letters might

> have been ignored and the ten elements needed for a successful

> complaint letter. This Manual also focusses on how to force your

> State Education Agency to start doing its job, which might solve

> your problem. The Manual details parents' rights under five Federal

> statutes and explains over a hundred strategies on how to use all the

> Federal statutes together to solve your problem before asking for a

> Hearing, and how to use them to win in a Hearing

>

> To Connie and ,

> To commemorate the one month anniversary of this new message board,

> I would like to say, THANK YOU. I was never one for boards, per say,

> but I have found this to be the best. Maybe it's because I have a shared

> interest, or maybe it's because the messages are sincere. Maybe it's

> because of all the great people I have met, and then maybe it's a

> combination of all that and then some. I know it's helping others,

> and I find satisfaction in that. The folks I have met over this past

> month are the nicest and greatest parents I've ever known. I am

> proud to be a part of this, and, again, I thank you both for making it all

> possible.
