Mission Statement
Let me help you as you navigate the complex special education system, where you will continue to be a well-informed partner in your journey to support your child. I help ensure that data drives the supports and services your child may be entitled to.
Support
Advocating for your child can be overwhelming, confusing, and emotionally taxing. Whether you are concerned about your child in their school setting, have questions on how to go about requesting evaluations, or are facing challenges with your child's Individualized Educational Plan (IEP) or 504 Plan, it is imperative to remain child-focused. I can help you do that in a non-adversarial environment so as to keep your child's best interests in mind, all while informing you of your rights and responsibilities.
The purpose of special education advocacy is to ensure that a student receives a Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) in the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) to access programs and services a student may qualify for. Advocating for students with learning differences exists to ensure the best educational outcomes. Education advocacy includes collaborating with families, special education staff, and school administration.
