Thanks Vanessa! I love how you say that when you do mention an acronym, you step back and explain it. I think that’s a part of educating families on the language they will need to understand as they move into the Part B system.

I have found that I usually slip up by saying, “IEP meeting” and then have to take a step back and explain what I am saying to families. I find that is helpful to explain that to families so that they don’t feel as overwhelmed when the time comes for them to have that meeting.
