Resource Description
This guide is for families who are looking for information and resources to help their child return to school and negotiate the academic system throughout their education. The authors hope you find this book useful and informative.
The terms, as used in this text, “parents” and “families” include biological, adoptive, single parent, extended and any other familial arrangement. This resource may be valuable for anyone who cares for a child with brain injury and may need some help understanding and negotiating the school re-entry process.
There are many people in schools who have contact with your child. The term “educators” is used to include anyone working within an educational setting, including administrators, teachers, aides, therapists, psychologists, counselors, coaches and many others. They all influence your child’s education in some way.
Brain injury affects each child differently. It is impossible to give all the answers for each situation. By familiarizing yourself with the educational system and learning what resources are available, you will be better able to find and choose those that best meet your child’s needs in school. This guide focuses on educational issues, but there are many other topics that can affect your child after a brain injury. There are references and resources at the end of this guide to help you find more information.
