Decision Making in Special Education: A Plea for Parent-Professional Partnerships
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2016
Abstract
The number of agencies inevitably involved with families of handicapped children suggests the necessity for co-ordination of services and liaison among professionals in the helping professions. This paper argues for the primacy of parents as both coordinators of services and fully informed partners in all decisions affecting their handicapped children. The far-reaching implications of this proposition for educational services are briefly discussed in the context of current developments in special education.
