Hello, Wildcats!

• How do we get started if a child may need special education supports and services?
• Who is eligible for special education?
• What is the difference between an IFSP and an IEP?
• Where can I find more information?

Who should attend? Families who have a child that may be eligible for special education, professionals who support children with disabilities or learning challenges, and other community members.
