For decades, parents have been desperately seeking trusted guides to help navigate the IEP process. While traditional IEP advocacy serves an important role, there’s a growing need for a different approach – one that bridges the gap between parents and schools through collaboration rather than confrontation.
Many experienced special education professionals and parents (just like you!) with valuable IEP experience hesitate to become traditional advocates. In their gut, they want to help, but they want to do things differently.
