THE CAA PROCESS
     Effectively meeting a child’s special learning needs is critically important
to their receiving an appropriate education. That's why we take the work we
do on behalf of clients very seriously and approach it in the most professional,
process-oriented manner possible. While your unique circumstance will drive
how we approach your case, here are the major steps in the process:

STEP ONE:        Initial In-Person Consultation with Parents

STEP TWO:       Complete Review of Educational/Diagnostic Record

STEP THREE:   Design Strategy for Achieving Educational Objectives

STEP FOUR:       Assemble Critical Information in Support of Objectives

STEP FIVE:         Schedule/Attend Planning & Placement Team Meeting

STEP SIX:            Negotiate Effective IEP Based on School Response

STEP SEVEN:    a) Objective Achieved - Ensure IEP Implementation
                                 b) Objective Denied - Seek Mediation Resolution
