disabilities (I\/DD) at school. The Arc\u2019s advocacy helped pass the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The IDEA is a federal law that requires schools to teach all students with disabilities with their peers who do not have disabilities as much as possible. There are still challenges for students with disabilities, including:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"list_view policy_page\">\n<li>Segregation<\/li>\n<li>Restraint and seclusion<\/li>\n<li>Poor transition planning<\/li>\n<li>Lack of teacher training<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Arc@School helps our chapters, parents, and others who are advocating for students with I\/DD to get the help they need at school. We want students with I\/DD to graduate, go to college, get a job, and live on their own as much as they can.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap
