The best resource in Texas is Texas Special Kids.  Doug and Patsy have given their lives to this ministry to help parents transition their special needs kids into homeschooling.  There are also more and more support groups popping up in Texas for parents with special needs kids.
There has been a change in the rules on the federal level.  THSC has done a great job of explaining all of this on their Special Needs Page.  Do click the more in-depth link on the page for a pdf that explains the new rules.
The Special Needs page of Ann Zeise's site is a major resource as a starting place.

DYSLEXIA
The following seems to be a pretty good site for information on dyslexia. It also includes information on a phonics program for teaching reading to people affected by dyslexia. Additionally, it has some diagnostic tests for determining whether your child has dyslexia. ~Jill
The starting speaker was Charles Schwab, the financial guy, who has dyslexia, and still reads very slowly. His son also has dyslexia, and when these two parents tried to find information, it was hard to come by. So he founded the Schwab Foundation for Learning to help other parents learn the latest in information.
