Special education advocacy involves supporting parents and students in navigating the special education system to ensure that children receive the services and accommodations they are entitled to under the law. An advocate helps families understand their rights, prepares them for IEP (Individualized Education Program) and 504 Plan meetings, and works to secure the best possible educational outcomes for students with disabilities. At KFL Special Education Advocacy and Mediation, we provide expert guidance to empower parents and ensure that schools meet their legal obligations to support students with special needs.
No, we work with both parents and schools/districts to improve special education outcomes. While we primarily support parents in advocating for their children’s rights, we also offer professional development, IEP facilitation, and mediation services for schools. Our goal is to foster collaboration between families and educators to create a better educational experience for all students.
Yes! We specialize in helping families navigate the 504 Plan process. We assist in determining eligibility, requesting appropriate accommodations, and ensuring that schools properly implement the plan. Whether your child needs classroom modifications, testing accommodations, or other support, we work with families to ensure that their rights under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act are upheld.
Getting started is simple! You can contact us via phone or email to schedule an initial consultation. During this meeting, we will discuss your child’s unique educational needs, review any existing IEPs or 504 Plans, and determine how we can best support your family. Whether you need assistance with school meetings, evaluations, or conflict resolution, we will create a personalized advocacy plan to help you navigate the special education process
Our process is designed to be as smooth and stress-free as possible:
- Initial Consultation – We discuss your concerns, review documents (IEP, 504 Plan evaluations), and identify areas of need.
- Plan Development – We create a tailored advocacy strategy, which may include reviewing school assessments, requesting additional evaluations, or preparing for meetings.
- Support & Advocacy – We attend IEP or 504 meetings with you, negotiate necessary services, and help address any conflicts with the school.
- Follow-up & Ongoing Support – We continue to assist with progress monitoring, additional meetings, and any adjustments needed to your child’s education plan.

We maintain strict privacy standards and do not share any personal or educational information without explicit consent.
