Adventure Pass Ending in 2025

Due to circumstances outside of our control, the Des Moines Public Library’s Iowa Adventure Pass service will no longer be available in 2025. Any reservation already made for 2025 will be honored, but we encourage anyone with a current reservation to print those passes immediately. Customers can make new reservations for passes that must be used by December 31, 2024. We hope to reintroduce the service at a later time, and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Program Description

Event Details

For students with disabilities and their families, the special education system can feel like a maze! An alphabet soup of acronyms, pages and pages of data and evaluations, and frequent IEP team meetings often leave families confused. If you are already receiving special education supports and services or if you are wondering if special education might be a good fit for you, Disability Rights Iowa will provide you with basic information about your rights.

Topics will include the initial evaluation process, IEP team basics, “transition planning” for high school students, student rights during discipline, the rights of English Language Learners with disabilities, and more. 

This program will be offered online via Zoom. When you register, you will receive login information to attend. If you are new to Zoom, click here for the library's instructions and tips. Si prefieres asistir a este evento en español, inscríbete para el 26 de octubre.

About the speakers: Disability Rights Iowa is a non-profit law center that provides free, legal advocacy for individuals with disabilities and their families across the state of Iowa.
