I think it might be helpful to you to try to find out if there is a local parents' advocacy group - even if you don't feel you need their help going into your IEP meeting, they may be able to let you know quickly (over the phone) where the resources are and what resources are available in your district. In our district, the reading programs aren't found in every school, and sometimes even the school staff present at team meetings either aren't aware of what's available or won't suggest it for whatever reason, so unless you know it exists you might get a non-answer when you ask it even though the program is there and your child would qualify - does that make sense?
