Special Education Advocacy Clinic

The Special Education Advocacy Legal Clinic is an innovative, comprehensive program designed to protect the educational rights of children with disabilities while introducing law students to the growing field of special education law. The clinic’s primary goal is to facilitate the adoption of practices that promote inclusion of children with disabilities and help overcome barriers to education in underserved communities. Students learn to facilitate collaboration between school districts and parents, as well as to provide direct legal representation at Individual Education Plan meetings, mediation sessions and special education administrative proceedings.
