Functional and adaptive behavior goals are often overlooked, but they are essential for students who need support with daily routines, self-regulation, or independent skills. In this session, you’ll learn how to advocate for goals that go beyond reading and math, goals that help your child navigate the school day, build self-help skills, and grow in real-world independence. Whether your child struggles with hygiene, managing materials, or transitions, this webinar shows you how to get meaningful support written into the IEP.
✅ You'll learn how to:
- Identify when functional/adaptive goals are needed in the IEP
- Collaborate with the team to write real-life, measurable goals
- Use input and data to push for services that build independence
