Handout
July, 2014

Handout from the 2014 Summer Conference for Social Services Attorneys. The document discusses laws that govern public education of people with developmental disabilities, including recognized types of disabilities (noting that "the disabling condition must not only exist but it must require that the student need special education and related services"). There is a section that discusses implications of IDEA for students who are under public guardianship as well.
