Listen in as Rob Tudisco and Cindy Goldrich unravel the complexity, providing concrete suggestions for how to best navigate school support. They share perspectives on how to best partner with schools, to include your child in the process, when and how to involve outside expertise, and even when you might need to call a lawyer.
