Episode notes

What counts as a “related service” in an IEP — and how do you know if your child is getting the right support?

In this episode, Dr. Sarah Pelangka, special education advocate and owner of KnowIEPs, breaks down services like speech therapy, OT, 1:1 aides, AAC, counseling, and more. She explains how these supports are determined and how they connect to your child’s goals and access to FAPE.
