IEP and 504 plan help for parents

Help preparing for IEP and 504 plan meetings, writing down your questions, asking for accommodations and understanding what the school offers. An IEP is a written plan for special education services; a 504 plan lists supports in the regular classroom.

Sliding scale for families who qualify. Meetings and support are online.

Helps families who

  • Have an IEP or 504 meeting coming up
  • Are not sure what to ask the school for
  • Feel unheard in school conversations
  • Want a second set of eyes on a plan

What we help with

  • Understanding your child's plan and reports
  • Writing down goals and questions before a meeting
  • Asking for accommodations that fit your child
  • Following up after the meeting

How it works

  1. Talk: you tell us your worries and goals.
  2. Prepare: we go over the plan with you and write down questions.
  3. Meet: with your permission, we can join the school meeting online.
  4. Follow up: we help you check that agreed supports happen.

Are you lawyers?

No. We are family advocates. We help you prepare and speak up; we do not give legal advice.

Can you come to the meeting?

With your permission, we can join online.

Do I need an IEP already?

No. We can help you understand how to ask for one.

Ready to talk about your child?

It takes about two minutes. No records or diagnosis needed.
