Why You Need an Advocate: Traversing the World of Fair Education and Special Needs

An advocate should be your ally, a knowledgeable and experienced professional who understands the needs of kids like yours, the balance of the classroom questions, the rights of children with special needs and the laws that protect them.

I work tirelessly to:

Ensure fair and appropriate education: I help you understand your child's IEP, advocate for the most appropriate placement to help them find success, and ensure they receive the necessary accommodations and modifications to succeed.

Traverse complex systems: From school districts to government agencies, I can guide you through the maze of bureaucracy and help you understand your rights and options.

​Empower parents and guardians: I can help you become a more confident and effective advocate for your child. They will equip you with the knowledge and tools you need to make informed decisions and speak up for your child's needs.

Why You Need an Advocate:

You're not alone: Parenting a child with special needs can be isolating. I provide support, understanding, and a listening ear.

Level the playing field: The education system can be intimidating, especially when you're facing complex issues. I help you communicate effectively with school officials and ensure your child's needs are met, while documenting the issues and agreements.

​Maximize your child's potential: I help you identify and access resources that can unlock your child's full potential.

Think Back:

Remember that time you felt lost in a meeting with school officials, unsure of what questions to ask or how to advocate for your child's needs? I would have been there to guide you and ensure your voice was heard.

Recall the frustration of trying to decipher your child's IEP and understand the legalese? I can help you break down the jargon and make sense of the document.

​Think about the countless hours you've spent researching resources and support services for your child. I can save you time and energy by connecting you with the right people and organizations.
