I've been meaning to post about this. It's a good interview. It mentions 504 plans, teen increase in deaths, other parents getting miffed about restrictions at school.  Helpful.

I won't post the site in a link out of respect of forum rules but I'll give a shout out for Laurel's personal site if you search for it. She's been rather amenable to the FA community as a legal resource. Unlike some of the other special education and disability legal advocates out there she's lived it as a parent wih a child who has LTFA therefore she has a greater specific focus on 504 rather than mainly the IDEA.
