IEP Support











Parent IEP Training

Join us for parent-to-parent IEP advocacy training led by our certified IEP advocate. This 7 week class will feature 6 weeks that are generalizable for parents of children with hearing loss using Listening and Spoken Language anywhere in the United States. The seventh week will focus specifically on statutes, scholarships, and other topics specific to Florida. There is no charge for parents. Donations at a level that works for your family to support the work of the Coalition will be very much appreciated and will help fund our literacy efforts.  This class has an estimated value of $100.

The links provided on this website are to resources that parents and professionals have found to be helpful and educational.  As the internet is a dynamic and ever changing environment, it is possible that a linked resource could contain information not endorsed by the Coalition. The Coalition stands adamantly opposed to any discrimination or harassment in regard to age, disability, national or ethnic origin, race, religious belief, sex, political affiliation, or otherwise as may be prohibited by federal and state law. 

     The Coalition is, at its core, supportive of the right of parents and guardians to choose the communication mode best suited to meet the needs of their individual child, recognizing that there are many factors to consider and communication options. In focusing on the particular needs of families pursuing a listening and spoken language option, it is not the Coalition’s position that this is the best option for every child. It is, however, a particular area of need and the one that this not-for profit is organized to support.
