Before you climb the tallest mountains, you start at the basecamp.

Our Advocacy Process

  • Connect with Your People

    Our initial meeting will help us get a better understanding of your learner’s journey and the steps we’ll need to take to access the most ideal resources and supports. We’ll gather all of your questions and outline your main concerns.

  • Learn Your Route

    Through meetings together, observations, team meetings, and correspondence, we’ll help you establish an action plan, determine your next steps, and understand your rights and responsibilities. Each route is unique, and your services will be tailored to your needs.

We walk you through each step of your unique journey to make sure you understand each part of the process and how your rights can best serve you and/or your child. No matter your starting position, we can help you get on track.

Step 2: Comprehensive and Continuous Support

We maintain in collaboration with all of your learner’s team members to develop a progressive education or care plan that grows with them into their future goals.

Step 3: Connection and Collaboration with Educators and Program Leaders

We lead and teach you to present your ideas, questions, and requests with confidence in order to bring all your team members together in the best interest of your learner. Whether we’re the bridge or the glue, we’re with you.

Navigating the public education system can be frustrating and confusing…

Client Testimonials

  • Olivia has a keen interest in supporting children and their families to navigate the confusing world of special education and has provided a much-needed service in this area. Her passion to see children receive quality education and programming is evident in her work. Olivia is one of few advocacy professionals with a clinical background to understand both sides of the issues at hand. This leads to discussions that are realistic, fair, and open-minded. Working with her never feels adversarial but always feels like we have a shared understanding of the responsibilities that should be brought about by the school district. I was glad to have her as a support for my family.

    La’Rasha (Child age 5)

  • Olivia has been instrumental in finding the blind spots in our 9-year-old son’s IEP. She is helping us not only identify and push for better goals but is detailing “how to” help our boy achieve these goals. Collaborating on this kind of detailed instruction in his IEP will allow us to hold school staff accountable for our son’s progress moving forward.

    We have trusted Olivia with overseeing our son’s behavioral therapy and his cognitive, social, and emotional development for 4.5 years now. She is a consummate professional, who believes whole-heartedly in our boy’s potential. Her advice on the next steps has always been insightful, precise, and fully explained. Now to have her level of insight informing us and advocating with us through this grueling IEP process is valuable and supportive beyond words.
