Helping Parents Realize Their Child's Fullest Potential Provided by Dr. Janet White-Mountain |
 
|
The purpose of this web site is to provide public awareness, understanding and professional advocacy for children and adults with disabilities to empower them to achieve their potential and participate fully in society. Telephone and internet consulting services are available for parents of children in special education and for parents whose children are experiencing difficulty in school. Representation for parents at case conferences is available in central Indiana. At times, parents find a need to have a highly qualified special educator, not connected to the school system, to represent their child's best interest in educational matters like development of the IEP, placement and in case conferences. Dr. White-Mountain provides an objective perspective in advocacy by answering questions for parents, explaining parental rights, reviewing individualized education plans for appropriateness and in identifying appropriate classroom adaptations and the least restrictive environment. Dr. Janet White-Mountain provides consulting services for parents of special needs children nationwide, provides inservice training for teachers, consults with businesses on the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) and trains administrators in Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and IDEA. Additionally, she is trained as a Due Process Hearing Officer and serves as an expert witness in the areas of learning disabilities, mental retardation, emotional handicaps, early childhood special education, physical handicaps, evaluation procedures, least restrictive environment, transition services and in disputed child custody cases. With twenty-four years experience in education, she is a leading authority on individualized education programs, classroom adaptations for special needs children, behavior management plans, inclusion and special education methods and materials for teaching exceptional children. |
