Self Advocacy Tool: Preparing for a Manifestation Determination Review

Resource Type:
Focus Area:

When a manifestation determination review is scheduled for your child, it is important that you gather all the
necessary information to ensure that an informed accurate decision is made by the IEP team as to whether your
child’s behavior was caused by or is related to their disability or the failure to implement their IEP. It is most
important that the information considered by the school team reflects the true nature of your child’s disability
and experiences.

In this tool, you can learn about steps you should take before the manifestation determination meeting takes place.
