What does the process look like?

Every child has unique needs, and each family has a different idea of what they need from an advocate. No matter what your child’s situation looks like, the basic process is the same for everyone:

Schedule your initial 30-minute consultation

After the consultation, you will receive a formal proposal outlining how an advocate can help. This includes an initial cost estimate as well as a contract to retain services

You and your advocate will work together to get your child the education they deserve
