Empowering Families for Meaningful Inclusion
​If your child is in a separate class (SDC/SAI) and you want more inclusion, a well-planned IEP meeting can be the key to unlocking opportunities in general education. I help families navigate the IEP process, ensuring your team understands why your child deserves to learn in the least restrictive environment.
​
Already in an inclusive setting but struggling? We’ll troubleshoot and advocate for the right supports to help your child thrive.
​
From crafting a strong vision statement to ensuring accurate present levels, inclusive goals, and necessary services, I guide families through every step. Together, we’ll build an IEP that secures meaningful inclusion, access to the full curriculum, and a pathway to a diploma.
