Fighting for Your Child’s Rights at the IEP/ARD Meeting | Autism Advocacy Tips from a Warrior Mom

Описание: Fighting for Your Child’s Rights at the IEP/ARD Meeting | Autism Advocacy Tips from a Warrior Mom

If you’ve got a child on the autism spectrum in public school, this video is for you. I'm sharing everything I learned the hard way—through years of sitting across from a table of “experts” in ARD and IEP meetings—so you don’t have to go in unprepared or unheard.

I’ll show you how I became that mom (the one they didn’t want to see coming 😏), why I brought an 8x10 photo of my daughter to every meeting, how to get an advocate without paying a dime, and what to say (and not say) to actually get your child the services they deserve.

You’ll learn how to:

Prepare like a pro (binder, diagnosis docs, and all)

Navigate school pushback without losing your mind

Spot the quiet ways they try to distract and derail you

Ask strategic questions when no one else will advocate for your child

Push back respectfully—and effectively
