What is an IEP?

An IEP, or Individualized Education Program, is a plan that helps students with disabilities get the support they need to learn in school. This video explains how to ask for an IEP, what steps to follow, and who helps create the plan.

You’ll learn what happens during the IEP meeting, what kind of help your child might get, and how you can speak up for your child. The video also talks about who can be part of the IEP team and how the plan can change as your child grows.

If you want more help or have questions, talk to your child’s school or visit together.stjude.org.
