MANIFEST DESTINATION REVIEW
A Manifestation Determination Review (MDR) is a process in special education that determines if a student's behavior is a direct result of their disability. Special needs students may face challenges in this review, such as a lack of understanding of the process and difficulties in communicating their needs. S.J.J. Law offers the professional services of Special Education Advocates to help navigate the MDR process and ensure that the student's rights and needs are being met.
