Making its debut on May 16, 2003, the Our Children Left Behind Web site was created to address some of the untruths being said about parents as it relates to the reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
Congressmen are claiming that parents are spreading misinformation and that we are not concerned about the recent passage of H.R. 1350. The passage of H.R. 1350 resembles the worst nightmare scenario for many parents who have students with disabilities.
The purpose of this site is to publish press releases primarily authored by students with disabilities and/or their advocates and to post the updated news under the "Breaking News" section of this site.
A volunteer mom paid for the hosting service and designed this Web site (please give her a break!). So, it is small and limited in space, with only five pages total. This site certainly will not be comprehensive of everything that is available.
Rather, it is a place to refer people who have little or no idea what of what is going on and "light their fire" to get moving to do something. A nice choice for people who say, "I am not political. I hate politics, but what can I do?"
Thank you for your support and interest.
