Description

This episode dives into a topic that keeps many parents up at night - What happens when the school bus stops coming? All families are understandably stressed when high school ends because it marks a major transition. This is an especially stressful time for special needs families. With our guests, we will not only discuss why this dramatic decrease in services is referred to as "the cliff," we will also share ways to avoid some common pitfalls. This episode does not offer any "magic bullets," but reviews what your rights are and some proven ways to advocate. For those with the time and energy, listen up for ways you can help create systematic changes that are long overdue (like visiting the NYADD Facebook Page). Thank you RocVox for helping us share this important information. www.rocvox.com
