In this unique resource, a school attorney and a school psychologist provide the latest case-based guidance and equity-focused practices to improve consistency, reduce bias, and ensure defensible eligibility decisions for emotional disturbance evaluations.
Learn how to address the needs of students who have or are suspected to have ED with a current examination of:
- The challenges in ED assessment and eligibility determinations and new best practices for those processes
- The impact of bias in assessment and eligibility determination
- An approach to identifying and preventing stigma and labeling
- The difference between ED and “overlapping disabilities” to avoid misidentification
- Prevention and intervention through integrated MTSS
