Afro SPED was created for parents, relatives, friends, allies, educators and related service professionals of public school African-American (K-12) students with disabilities. It is a safe place for us to learn, vent and discuss subjects relating to federal laws, I.E.P's, case studies, disproportionality, school happenings, resources, etc. in a culturally responsive manner.
