[nabs-l] Why I attended my own Iep meetings

[Roanna Bacchus]

Dear Students,

I'd like to share some thoughts about why I attended my own IEP 
meetings.  My TVI's encouraged me to play an active role in my 
personal and academic life.  I was given a braille copy of my IEP 
so that I could assist my TVI in reading it to the team.  It gave 
me the confidence to speak up for what I wanted.  I'd like to 
hear your thoughts on this topic.
