Parents Have the Power to Make Special Education Work is an "elegantly written and wisely pragmatic" guide to navigation for parents adrift in today's storm-tossed seas of special education.

Authors Judith Canty Graves and Carson Graves "learned the ropes" by advocating successfully for their own child from preschool through high school, and by engaging extensively with many other parents and professionals along the way.

The will join us at NESCA from 7:00 to 9:00pm on Thursday, October 16th to discuss their experiences, following introductory remarks by renowned Special Education Attorney Robert K. Crabtree, who wrote the book's robust Foreword.
