101 Advocacy brings experiences from both the education and family worlds. We are trained special education professionals, with advanced degrees and/or additional certifications. We have worked in the field for a combined total of more than 100 years! All advocates have a family member with special needs. This combination of experiences brings a unique service to families in Texas.
We believe educating families on special education/504 laws, their rights, and implications of school's recommendations is imperative for the family to make informed, educated decisions. We assist at conferences, Admission, Review, Dismissal (ARD) meetings and 504 meetings
We believe in strong collaboration between families and schools to get effective educational programs, services, and supports for students with disabilities. We believe the student's plan must be clearly and specifically stated and individualized so that it will meet each student's individual needs.
