From Teacher to Special Education Advocate


A job title doesn’t always tell you what someone has actually been trained to do.

After 14 years as an educator, this teacher made the decision to step out of the classroom and into full-time special education advocacy.

And that transition opens up an important conversation: when we sit across from someone at the IEP or 504 table, how much do we really know about their training, experience, and preparation for the role they hold?

Titles matter. But understanding who is at the table, what they bring to it, and what questions still need to be asked matters too.
