Have you ever felt confused, overwhelmed, or lost when it comes to the ins and outs of your child’s transition to school? This installment of Feeling This Life is for you! Through this silly episode, Megan and Sonnie, both moms to preschoolers with visual impairments, go head-to-head to answer as many questions as they can about the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Kathy Mullen, director of education at VIPS and IDEA expert, shares everything a family needs to know to be empowered for the transition from early intervention to school based services.
