What is a Special Education Advocate?
A special education advocate is a professional who assists families of children with disabilities and learning differences by navigating the complex world of special education. This includes understanding and applying the regulations that govern special education services in schools, such as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
A Special Education Advocate does not offer legal advice and is different from a Special Education Attorney. Please click the button below for additional information.
