month), host quarterly Family Fun Days, fundraise for our local Buddy Walk,
and share information and support via our website ( www.dsnetwork21.org) and
online message board. All events are free. If you would like more

Hello Families Network! I just wanted to send you a quick email to let you
know that Governor Corzine signed A4076/S2604 into law this morning. This
makes it official, and the law in NJ now states that the burden of proof is
on schools districts in special education due process hearings. Thanks
again for all your wonderful work on this issue. This is a huge success and
a great example of what we can accomplish when we come together and take
action!
