Educational Advocacy

Helping families navigate the school system with clarity, confidence, and the support their child deserves.

Support Navigating the Educational System

Navigating the complexities of educational plans like IEPs (Individualized Education Programs) and 504 Plans can be daunting.  It requires expertise and training, yet parents are expected to handle this on their own.  Whether you are preparing for an initial meeting, seeking revisions to an existing plan, I provide expert guidance to ensure your child receives the services they deserve and require.  In addition to being trained by COPAA and the SPAN Network, I have extensive experience joining in IEP and 504 processes.

How Educational Advocacy Helps

Preparation and guidance for IEP and 504 meetings to help parents feel confident and informed.

PLAN

REVIEW

I will help you prepare for meetings with school staff, and give you a comprehensive action list to advocate for your child's needs.  I can also attend meetings with you as needed.  

PREPARATION & ADVOCACY

I can liaise directly with school personnel to ensure your child's educational program is fully supported.

COLLABORATION WITH SCHOOLS

I am trained to provide IEE's for children who require an ABA-based educational program and Functional Behavior Assessments (FBAs).  Additionally, I have extensive experience serving as an expert witness for impartial hearings.
