Student Name Professor Name Course Date Scoliosis, JRA/JIA, TBI, and Osteogenesis Imperfecta, and the Principle of “Nothing about Us without Us” How Scoliosis, JRA/JIA, TBI, and Osteogenesis Imperfecta can lead to an IEP and support strategies Scoliosis, Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis (JRA), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) are diseases that affect physical functioning in students and which can only make it easier for them to get individualized Education Plans (IEP) for effective learning. Scoliosis, the lateral curvature of the spine, might cause problems with sitting or balancing, images or sense of self (Setting Scoliosis Straight Foundation 1:25).
