Q & A Distance Learning and Education Law

Distance learning during this COVID-19 pandemic has been extremely difficult for many students, especially students with ADHD. Many parents are very concerned about the impact of distance learning on their child’s ability to learn new information, demonstrate their understanding of learning concepts, and achieve grade level standards without in-person, real-time educational supports. On June 10th, Mr. Douglas Spencer Esq. will hold an open forum to address your concerns and answer your questions regarding your child’s educational rights (e.g., how content has been delivered, how accommodations/services have been provided, grading, how progress of IEP goals have been monitored, how Annual Reviews are being handled). If you’re a parent of a child with ADHD, you will not want to miss this informative virtual meeting! Please e-mail us to register. First come first serve. 100 participant limit.

“Is it ADHD, ASD, or both?: Neurological Conditions and Clinical Considerations”

ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are two of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders yet are also often misdiagnosed or diagnosed together, making the diagnostic and treatment processes confusing. This talk will focus on understanding the difference between the two conditions, as well as what a comorbid presentation of both looks like. Considerations for diagnosis, treatment planning, and advocacy will be shared. Although emphasis will be on information for affected individuals and their families, the presentation will also include practical clinical considerations for professionals and educators working with this population.
