Education Support

What is Education Support?

In the practice of advocacy, it is our goal to work with families to help them understand and navigate the special education process. Our BCBA will work with the IEP/ 504 team to ensure that your student’s needs are met in the educational setting. We advocate for your child to ensure they receive what they are entitled to by law and see that the schools implement the best possible educational plan to meet their needs. Educational advocacy is not reliant on insurance coverage, meaning families can use private pay to access these services.

  • Educational advocates are well-versed in special education laws and regulations, ensuring that the IEP complies with legal requirements and that your student’s rights are upheld.

    Advocates help ensure that the IEP includes all necessary services and accommodations, and that these are implemented properly to support the student’s educational progress.

  • Advocates can guide families through the often-complex IEP process, helping them understand their role, the procedural steps, and how to effectively communicate their child’s needs.

    Our advocates can help prepare families for IEP meetings by gathering necessary documentation, outlining key points to discuss, and strategizing how to present concerns and requests effectively. Advocates can also assist in developing and reviewing IEP goals: setting appropriate, measurable goals for the student and ensure that these goals align with their educational needs and potential.

    Advocates can facilitate better communication between the family and the school, ensuring that both parties are on the same page regarding the student’s needs and the services being provided. If disagreements arise between the family and the school, an advocate can mediate these conflicts, helping to negotiate solutions and ensure that the student’s best interests are represented.

  • The IEP process can be stressful and overwhelming. Advocates provide emotional support and reassurance to families, helping them feel more confident and empowered.

    Advocates can connect families with additional resources, such as community services, support groups, and specialized educational tools, to further support the student’s development.
