Do you have doubts about whether your child is hitting developmental milestones? Are you concerned that your child is not being adequately challenged or supported?

Know what to ask for and how. Join education attorney Juliet Hiznay for this interactive online workshop for parents of infants, toddlers and young children.

The Use Your Words Workshop will empower you to advocate for your child so you can:

• Identify medical and therapeutic specialists who assess and treat young children;
• Learn about city or county infant-toddler programs and child find public school programs;
• Master “magic” words so you can more effectively advocate for your child;
• Communicate with confidence, using commonplace acronyms such as ITC, PIE, IFSP, IEP, IDEA, 504, LRE, FAPE, 2E, DD and CCC+ etc.;
• Discover the breadth of eligibility categories for special education, as defined under Virginia state law; and
• Understand when to pursue private assessment and therapy as a supplement or alternative to public programs.
