File No. 12: Cai and the Cover Up

If you're touched in any way by the life of a child with a disability, this podcast is for you. Each week, hosts Julie Swanson and Jennifer Laviano pull back the curtain on what really happens in special education. The Special Ed Files will explore real-world examples in special education, explain where mistakes were made, explain where the law was violated, and help listeners avoid making these mistakes. The podcast hopes to demystify the federal law that governs special education, and change the lives of children with disabilities by empowering the adults who work with them.
This podcast is a production of the Quinnipiac University Podcast Studio, and the first season was produced by Bryan Murphy.  The second season is produced by Paul Ashton.
