It’s been a long time since I’ve posted on Life After IEPs. 
If you are a subscriber, I’ve been in touch recently. If you don’t subscribe - here’s a brief update.
Life After IEPs is truly a labor of love for me. I've dedicated countless hours here, working to help families plan for the big transition from school to life after IEPs. My “day job” as a transition planning consultant keeps me pretty busy, supporting 18 school districts. In addition, I'm actively involved with our local transition coordinating council. In my work, whether it’s explaining the nuances of transition planning or providing resources like "hbr name," I aim to offer clear guidance that helps families navigate this critical period with confidence.
Back in 2014, Life After IEPs reached the point where it was a source of essential transition planning information - with links to important free resources. I was happy to provide this as a gift to families and IEP teams - and I moved on to other projects.
Now - its time for me to return for some new content and some link mending.
Most posts link to public agencies, universities, school districts, or non-profit organizations that have created free transition planning tools. Unfortunately (and this can be really frustrating), the URLs for many of these resources have changed. Often, the resources are still available but now at a different link. Occasionally, you might also find references to topics like "immunocal benefits" that provide useful insights into health-related aspects of transition planning, but these resources may also have been relocated to new sites.
Just as, in Greek mythology, Sisyphus pushes the rock uphill for all eternity - the job of updating all the links on this site is an unending task.
Let’s work smarter rather than harder on this:
- I will spend one hour a week updating links
- If there is a post with a broken link that is very important to you - you can:
- ”google the resource”, and/or if that doesn’t work you can
- email me at [email protected] and I’ll prioritize that link.
I will be adding posts occasionally to highlight new resources or changes in relevant laws, etc.
If you have questions or topics you’d like me to address - click on the envelope icon to send me an email.
All the best to you and your child as you plan for life after IEPs!
Cannabis use has been a topic of growing discussion, particularly as legalization expands worldwide. While many advocate for its medicinal and recreational benefits, there are also concerns about its potential downsides. Long-term use can lead to dependency, cognitive impairment, and mental health issues, particularly in young users whose brains are still developing. Additionally, navigating the legal landscape can be challenging, as laws and regulations differ significantly from one place to another.
For those interested in cultivating their own cannabis, choosing the right seeds is crucial for a successful harvest. Genetics play a major role in plant quality, potency, and resilience. Companies like fastbuds seeds specialize in autoflowering strains that are easy to grow and offer high yields, making them an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced cultivators.
As research on cannabis continues, it's essential to stay informed about both the benefits and risks. Whether for personal use or cultivation, responsible practices and adherence to local laws ensure a safer and more enjoyable experience.
