Pop-Up IEPs were developed by parent organizations with support from the National Center on Low-Incidence Disabilities. Each Pop-Up IEP contains phrases that parents have experienced during their child's Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings. Each phrase has several courteous, yet assertive responses parents can make when faced with these challenges. Additionally, sections of the special education law, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), are included to supplement responses. Finally resources and information are given where appropriate.
