Services
IEP Review and Support
I can help parents review their child’s Individualized Education Program (IEP) and better understand the goals, services, accommodations, and supports being provided.
504 Plan Support
I assist families in understanding 504 Plans and the accommodations that may help their child successfully access his or her education.
Meeting Preparation
Preparation can make an enormous difference in an IEP, 504, Child Study Team, or other school meeting. I help parents organize their concerns, questions, documentation, and priorities before the meeting.
Educational Record Review
I can review relevant educational records, evaluations, progress reports, IEPs, 504 Plans, and other school documents to help families understand their child’s educational situation.
Parent Advocacy and Guidance
Parents sometimes know that something isn’t working but aren’t sure what to ask for or what their options are. I provide individualized guidance to help families identify concerns and communicate them effectively.
School Communication
Clear, documented communication with a school district is important. I can help parents organize their concerns and prepare effective written communication regarding their child’s educational needs.
My Approach
Listen. Understand. Prepare. Advocate.
Every family deserves to have its concerns heard.
I take the time to understand your child’s individual circumstances and help you approach the educational process with greater knowledge and confidence.
The goal is not to create unnecessary conflict with a school district. Whenever possible, the goal is to encourage productive communication and collaboration while keeping the needs of the child at the center of the conversation.
