I dealt with the Iowa Special Education Program for several years during the 1980s and 1990s. With the help of so many—Children’s First advocates, our senators, Iowa Protection and Advocacy, the LAP division of the American Bar Association, other families and friends, and of course, my family and my church—I filed suit to stop the practice of locking the children in closets while they were attending elementary school. This was usually followed by the child being hospitalized in psychiatric facilities and often removed from their home for several weeks at a time afterward. Many families exhausted their medical insurance during this process.
The Rocky Mountain Regional Resource Center was hired to set time-out guidelines. The director of the Western Area Agency Special Education Department sent the policy statewide, and President Clinton signed it into legislation in 1996.
In 1998, I graduated from Kilian Community College in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, with a paralegal degree, followed by a bachelor of science and a master’s in public programs/sociology from Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona. I worked as a behavioral/crisis specialist for several years.показать меньше
