✨ **MEET THE SPEAKER** ✨
We're excited to welcome **Marlena Brandstein** as one of our featured speakers at the **Empowered Together Conference** hosted by The Goofy Gators!
Presentation:
Navigating the IEP Meeting
For many families, IEP meetings can feel overwhelming. Between unfamiliar terminology, multiple professionals, and important decisions, it's easy to leave wondering if you asked everything you wanted to ask.
During this informative session, Marlena will walk attendees through the structure of an IEP meeting, explain what each section should include, and share practical tips to help parents feel more prepared, informed, and confident throughout the process.
You'll leave with a better understanding of:
✔️ What to expect during an IEP meeting
✔️ What each section of the IEP means
✔️ Key details to pay attention to
✔️ Helpful strategies to make meetings more productive and successful
There will also be time for questions, making this an excellent opportunity to gain insight into one of the most important parts of your child's educational journey.
💜 We're thrilled to have Marlena sharing her expertise and helping families feel empowered to advocate for their children.
