The KASS Act would require schools to provide supports, not isolation or restraint, to all children in schools receiving public funding!

The IDEA is marking its 50th anniversary amidst significant challenges.
Students with disabilities face heightened risks as funding, services, and federal safeguards are threatened.
Additionally, reductions in federal staff responsible for these essential programs exacerbate the situation.
