    How to Advocate for a Child with Dyslexia within the Public Education System by Kelli Sandman-Hurley

    This updated edition of this bestselling, straightforward guide provides the essential information for parents and advocates to understand US law and get the right educational entitlements for a dyslexic child.

    Using case studies and examples, this book demonstrates clearly how to apply the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) to the unique requirements of a dyslexic child. It offers simple, intelligible help for parents on how to coordinate successfully with their child's school and achieve the right services and support for their dyslexic child; up to and beyond getting an effective Individual Education Plan (IEP).

    Dyslexia Advocate! is an invaluable tool for parents trying to negotiate a complex legal system to get the best outcome for their child. With brand new chapters on the structure of special education services in the US and current state laws, this guide is fundamental to understanding and advocating for your dyslexic child.
