AFC is a fee for service program, payable on the day of service. AFC staff cannot attend IEP or 504 meeting with families but can help by provide assistance in obtaining appropriate services through  and in-depth review of evaluations, IEPs and other records; help in planning for upcoming IEP or 504 meetings; provide strategies on letter writing and other  documentation strategies as well as provide strategies on how to effectively communicate with your child’s school.
