Guest guest Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 If people who are interested can please e-mail me directly as I don't want to miss any offers or ideas as well as posting, that would be very helpful. My e-mail address is SMD@... If people who have ideas could e-mail them to me that would be great as I am receiving responses asking what people can do and to be honest I don't know what each individual has to offer. If ideas come in I can match them up to people who don't know where they can be of most help... Shane > > I've been told in some areas of Texas if you're going to 'due process' the special ed. community of parents/family form a posse and support the family in need with whatever they can. It's sort of in the vien of someone going through a protracted sickness, family tradgedy or even a new neighbor...you bring over dinner some time or offer respite to give the parents some down time or help in sorting materials needed in the due process, bring your knowledge and experience or even give money, really the sky is the limit. > > The reason I bring this up is the Winkelman's of Parma, whose case is going to be heard in front of the Supreme Court, is fighting a battle for all us/our kids with little to no real support. They are going up against two law firms pro se. Regardless of what their due process is about they are fighting to have what is clearly written into IDEA be the law of the land and not inconsistantly enforced across the US. > > They are, in the spirit of give a man a fish you feed him for a day, teach him to fish you have helped feed him for life, working for all our kids. If and when they win no parent will have to suffer this again. It is huge as without this ability LEAs can stonewall you and you would have no recourse to a higher venue unless you had lots of money and a lawyer! > > If you have any interest please feel free to reply, > Shane > P.S.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 Are you related or one of the, it think it's Parma, Ciavarellas? I knew a girl named (if my memory serves me) Ciavarella.
