Presented by Jeremy J. Neff, Esq.
Many students remain traumatized by pandemic-related events. For some, pre-existing mental health needs have been exacerbated; for others, new symptoms and needs have arisen or may arise as schools “return to normal.” In this recorded webinar, attorney and former teacher Jeremy Neff addresses how special education and disability laws intersect with anxiety in the COVID-19 era, explaining IDEA and Section 504 requirements and providing guidance to help you meet students' needs.
You gain practical strategies for returning students to school – those already identified and those exhibiting new areas of need — equipping you to:
- Distinguish possible disability needs from short-term pandemic-related needs
- Precisely identify anxiety-related needs during IDEA and 504 evaluations
- Determine placement for a child requiring special education as a result of anxiety
- Develop and implement appropriate accommodations and/or direct supports and services
- And more!
