Join IDA-NNEA and special guest Joanne Grobecker, Board Member and representative of the Parent Information Center (PIC), for an informative and empowering webinar focused on helping families effectively advocate for children with language-learning disabilities like dyslexia.
Navigating the educational system can feel overwhelming, especially when your child has unique learning needs. In this session, Joanne will provide practical guidance on understanding your child’s rights, preparing for school meetings, building collaborative relationships with educators, and ensuring appropriate supports and services are in place.
Participants will learn:

- Deepen your understanding of how to address reading challenges through the IEP (Individualized Education Program) process
- Gain essential knowledge to make informed decisions about your child's education
This webinar is designed for parents, caregivers, and family members who want to better understand the advocacy process and feel more confident supporting their child’s literacy journey. Whether you are new to dyslexia or have been navigating supports for years, this session will provide valuable tools, resources, and encouragement.
