Young adults with disabilities can now attend school through age 21

The State of Illinois just passed a law allowing students with disabilities to receive special education services up until the day of their 22nd birthday. This provides new educational opportunities for these students, who previously could only attend through June or August of their 21st year. This law goes into effect immediately.  http://www.thearcofil.org/document.asp?did=884
