School Supports Class

The school program offers a weekly school supports class. During this one-time session, caregivers can receive basic information about 504 plans, IEPs and school advocacy. This class is for caregivers with children who are receiving treatment through Seattle Children’s, especially psychiatric and behavioral health care.

The school supports class is held once per week from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. over Zoom. Participants only need to attend one session for all of the information. Each session has time at the end for questions.
