MILCON 2021: Building Foundations and Futures for Military Special Education (September 13, 2021 - September 20, 2021)

Description:

Military service members and their families are resilient and resourceful, many also face unique challenges and have special considerations related to the service of their country. When military families have a student with a disability, it adds another layer of complexity accessing information and supports, while ensuring their students receive a free, appropriate public education.

The Parent Education Advocacy Training Center (PEATC), in collaboration with the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE),  invite military service members and their families who have students with disabilities, as well as the educators and other support professionals who serve them, to join us for a virtual conference designed with their interests in mind!

There will be two live sessions as well as a variety of pre-recorded presentations available for viewing at your convenience. This year’s conference will include topics on special education, inclusive education, collaboration, transition services, and more!
