The Childhood Collective
12/6/2023
SUMMARY
Sifting your way through evaluations, 504’s, IEP’S, emails, and parent rights, it’s all so much. It can be very confusing to know when to advocate or when to wait. The process can differ from state to state and school system to school system. Our goal is to help you navigate the process so you can feel confident instead of discouraged. You are the best person to support your kids, and we are in your corner. It may feel like there is a mountain of things you have to be an expert in to help your kid. But that's not true! In this episode, we share what every parent NEEDS to know to support their child at school.
MEET OUR TEAM
We are Lori, Mallory, and Katie. Lori and Mallory are child psychologists, and Katie is a speech language pathologist. Most importantly, we are moms, just like you.
After working with families over a combined total of 40 years, we saw a need to provide ongoing support and education to parents raising children with ADHD.
