Support Restraint and Seclusion Bill & Keep it Strong!

1. Contact Congress. Ask them to cosponsor the School Restraint and Seclusion Bill.
Ask your Congressional Representative to cosponsor the The Preventing Harmful Restraint and Seclusion in Schools Act (H.R. 4247).
It will go far to strengthen the rights of children with disabilities, prohibiting the use of restraint and seclusion unless there is an imminent risk of physical injury that less restrictive interventions would not stop.
