Calm Start — Guided Advocacy
Special Education Advocacy Support
You know your child needs support at school. But understanding evaluations, IEPs, 504 Plans, disability-related needs, school communication, and your child's educational rights can quickly become overwhelming.
Calm Start gives you an experienced advocate in your corner so you don't have to navigate the special education process alone.
Together, we'll work toward an educational experience where your child's disabilities are understood, their needs are appropriately supported, and their special education rights—including access to FAPE—are honored.
What's Included
Comprehensive Educational Record Review — $300 Value
I'll review your child's educational records to understand the history of the case, current services and supports, evaluations, concerns, and areas that may need attention.
Personalized Recommendations + 90-Day Action Plan — Included
You'll receive clear recommendations and a personalized plan for what to focus on over the next 90 days, so you aren't left wondering what to do next.
10 Advocacy Hours — $2,500 Value $250/hour
Use your advocacy support as situations arise throughout the school year. Your child's needs don't always follow a predictable timeline, so we'll focus your advocacy time where it's needed most.
Up to 2 School Meetings — $500 Value
I'll attend up to two school meetings with you during the school year, so you have knowledgeable advocacy support at the table.
Continued Advocacy Support Based on Your Child's Individual Case — $2,000 Value
Special education doesn't always fit neatly into a set number of hours. When additional advocacy support is appropriate beyond the initial 10 hours, continued support is considered based on the individual needs, circumstances of your child's case, and method of communication agreed upon in writing.
Monday–Thursday Voxer Access — $6,500 Value
When an email arrives, a question comes up, or you're unsure how to handle something with the school, you have a place to get guidance and talk it through.
Voxer support does not deduct from your advocacy hours.
You Don't Have to Figure This Out Alone
The goal isn't for you to become a special education expert.
It's for you to feel informed, prepared, confident, and supported as decisions are being made about your child's education.
You'll have someone in your corner helping you understand the process, communicate your concerns, prepare for what comes next, and advocate for your child's educational needs and rights.
Total Value: $11,800
