Advocacy Goals

Special Education Advocacy is for parents of students that are struggling to succeed in a school setting due to a disability. As a parent, you know and understand your student’s needs, but it can be difficult to identify specific solutions.

Our team of consultants will help you to navigate the options available to you, and we will be your personal advocate to ensure your student receives all the benefits available to him or her.

Getting Started

With our initial consultation, we educate parents how to play an active and powerful role in meeting their students’ needs in school. Then, we will review records and evaluations, attend meetings with school representatives, and guide parents in their communication with the school system.

Ensuring students’ education rights are met according to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is at the center of our work with families.
