Every child deserves the opportunity to be educated and to thrive. Sometimes, children need assistance accessing those opportunities in the form of special education. Unlocking the power of special education advocacy is the key to empowering these learners and providing them with the support they need to succeed in the now and in the future with a skill set to be independent and prosperous adults.
Special education advocacy is the practice of fighting for the rights and needs of students with disabilities to ensure that these students receive the necessary accommodations, resources, and opportunities to reach their fullest potential.
By advocating for special education, we can achieve an educational environment that is equitable and inclusive, while empowering very learner to overcome challenges, embrace their strengths, and achieve their goals.
Through a partnership with the family and school, your advocate will guide you along the special education journey to ensure your child is being provided a free and appropriate education that they undoubtedly deserve.
