STUDENT ADVOCACY MICHIGAN BLOG

UNDERSTANDING THE 504 & IEP PROCESS PLUS HELPFUL RESOURCES

Thank you for checking out our blog!  As the founder of Student Advocacy Michigan, a Special Education Advocate and a parent of an IEP child, I know how challenging special education is!  It can be very difficult to get the right supports in place at school for a your child.  The system is complex and involves many civil rights and special education laws which makes it very hard for parents to know what to do.  Don't fight this battle alone!  I work as a Special Education Advocate and serve families all across Michigan helping make this process easier! We have a team that has experience and knowledge to help advocate for you child.  Contact me today to get started or with questions!  Don't forget to check out free downloads, resources and my blog posts!
