Takeaways: In this episode you’ll learn 5 basic advocacy skills that will set you on the right path.   

Episode 02 delivers five basic advocacy skills that are aimed to help parents but will be applicable to anyone supporting a child in special education.  They’re skills I’ve used in advocating for my own child and in coaching clients as their special education attorney.  They’re tried, true, and easy to implement.  If you remember one tip, it is to Communicate, Communicate, Communicate!  Keeping lines of communication open between home, school, and other professionals is so important.

Now Enrolling

The Special Education & Advocacy Lab is an on-line, on-demand training course for parents of children on special education that are interested in improving their advocacy at the IEP table. Each of the ten modules is a little under an hour, so in about 6.5 hours – less than one work day – or a few weeks’ time we go start to finish in Special Education Advocacy. We cover Parent Rights and the nuts and bolts of the IEP Meeting, the basics of the law, a deep dive into the IEP document and goal writing, progress monitoring and specially designed instruction, due process, document organization, communication strategies and so much more! Each module is jam packed with content and collaborative, reasonable, objective advocacy tips.
