An Individualized Education Program (IEP) is a customized plan designed to support students who need specialized instruction or services to succeed in school. Developed collaboratively by caregivers, teachers, and school specialists, an IEP outlines your child’s learning goals and the supports needed to achieve them — which can include ABA-based strategies, behavioral goals, and one-on-one assistance.
IEPs ensure your child receives the right help, in the right setting, so they can grow academically, socially, and emotionally at school.
