IEP & 504 Plans for Students with Cystic Fibrosis — Hannah Pfeiffer, M.Ed. & Rachel Alder (Video)

Students with cystic fibrosis may require accommodations on account of their disease or another disability in order to reach their full academic potential. In this podcast, Hannah Pfeiffer, M.Ed. and Rachel Alder, adults with CF, explain the difference between an Individual Education Program (IEP) and 504 Plan. Hannah and Rachel detail how to speak with one's medical team and school to determine which support program is appropriate, and provide example accommodations that may specifically help people with CF.
