OCCBD Presents Dr. Natasha Strassfeld “Increasing Parent Participation” Virtual Event

Dr. Strassfeld’s research examines the ways in which parents navigate the special education and accommodations process via legal and policy mechanisms, racial/ethnic disparities in how students are (mis)identified for special education placements and services, and special education and related transition services within the juvenile justice system.
