I have a child that has been on an IEP for 7 years. I also advocate for families of children with IEP's. There are many great articles on this site that can help you understand your rights, your child's disability and how to prepare for team IEP meetings. Here's a link to a list of articles www.greatschools.net/search/se
I would recommend educating yourself as much as possible about your child's disability, the types of programs that can help.
It is also helpful to fully understand the demands and expectations of "typical" students. This gives you insight into the types of skills your child needs and how far behind (or not) he or she might be, Most states list grade level expectations on their DOE website. These are often called curriculum frameworks.
Here are some websites I like:
www.wrightslaw.com
www.ldonline.org
www.allkindsofmind.org
If you have specific quesitons, check with us at the Learning and attention difficulties group at community.greatschools.net/gro
Best of luck!
