2026/27
The IEP Toolkit program will allow you to spend this school year feeling confident to advocate for your child and engage in a productive dialogue with your child's school team.
Over the course of a month, I will send you a daily email based on the week's theme, which will include links to resources, draft emails for you to adapt to your specific situation, templates for different formal communications, a neurodiversity affirming goal bank and answers to commonly asked questions.
You will also gain 1 month access to my Neurodiversity Affirming Parents Group's weekly office hour, where you can ask me questions about the week’s theme (or anything else that is on your mind). Office hours will be recorded so you can go back and watch if you are unable to join live.
The themes we will cover each week:
WEEK 1: Getting started in the IEP Process/opening up the lines of communication
WEEK 2: Unique Situations in the IEP process
WEEK 3: Negotiating challenges at the IEP table
WEEK 4: Goals and Accommodations
The IEP toolkit has been designed to be a digestible, actionable program at a reasonable price point, for busy parents. You will walk away from the month with the resources, links, and templates that you need to feel empowered to shift the trajectory of your child’s program.
I really hope that you will be able to join us and gain both the confidence and tools to ensure your child's IEP affirms who they are!
Testimonial
"This resource lays out an exact roadmap to advocate confidently for your child at the IEP table from the first steps on the journey to negotiating unique situations WITH access to a parent community that really understands what it means to advocate...It was INCREDIBLE. The support, the clarity, the community - this is what parent's navigating IEPs deserve"
FAQ section
One of the main reasons I designed this toolkit was to make sure there was something that busy, time pressured parents and caregivers could access without any additional pressure or overwhelm. The toolkit is sent out via email every week day for the month but you can also access all the content through the learning platform on my website. You have access to the content on there for 365 days. So even if you want to save all the resources for a later time that suits your timetable or lifestyle, you can. The office hour sessions are only available for the month that you sign up, but sessions are recorded if you are unable to join live.
Yes! I even provide a sample email that you can use to request an evaluation. The program will help ensure that you have a good foundation of resources and knowledge whatever stage of the IEP journey you are at.
For the month that you are in the program, you get access to 4 of my neurodiversity affirming parents group regular weekly live office hours included. These sessions take place every Friday 9am PT on Zoom, but are recorded if you are unable to join live. You can use this space to ask me and the group direct questions, or share your experience. I think the real benefit is truly being in community with a group of parents that understand the journey and nuances of parenting a disabled child.
You will receive a separate email with the link to join the Neurodiversity Affirming Parents Group for the month.
I really care about accessibility and believe that knowledge is not something that should be gate kept. While I am passionate about the work that I do one to one, I know that price point is not accessible to many parents, and so this toolkit is an affordable option for people to access the knowledge, resources and support that they need.
