Practical Guidance for Parents Navigating Special Education
Every child is unique, and every family’s situation is different.
Whether you’re trying to understand an evaluation, prepare for an upcoming IEP meeting, review educational records, or determine your next steps, I provide practical guidance designed to help parents make informed decisions and advocate confidently for their children.
Strategy Sessions
A one-on-one consultation focused on your specific concerns and goals.
Common topics include:
- Special education eligibility
- IEP concerns
- 504 plans
- School communication challenges
- Behavior and discipline issues
- Evaluation results
- Planning for upcoming meetings
If you’re unsure where to start, a strategy session is often the best first step.
Document Review
Educational records can be lengthy, technical, and difficult to interpret.
Document review services are designed to help parents better understand evaluations, IEPs, 504 plans, progress reports, and other educational records.
Together, we’ll identify strengths, concerns, and potential areas for further discussion with your child’s educational team.
Meeting Preparation
School meetings are often more productive when parents have a clear plan beforehand.
Meeting preparation sessions may include:
- Reviewing agendas and documents
- Identifying priorities and concerns
- Developing questions for the team
- Discussing advocacy strategies
- Organizing parent input
The goal is simple: help you walk into the meeting feeling informed, prepared, and confident.
Local Advocacy Support
Limited advocacy services may be available for families in the Metro Atlanta area.
Because every situation is different, availability and scope of services are discussed on a case-by-case basis.
Not Sure Which Service Is Right for You?
That’s okay.
Many parents know they need help but aren’t sure exactly what type of support would be most beneficial.
Send me an email with a brief description of your situation, and I’ll help point you in the right direction.
