Individualized Advocacy Services
Our ultimate goal is for your child to receive educational support, services and placement that they are entitled to. There are a number of different individualized services offered, including records review, ongoing consulting, and meeting attendance.
When you’re ready to take the next step in your child’s advocacy, review our pathways and consider the right path for you and your family. All services include a FREE 15-minute consultation to discuss the process.

School observations enable us to gather information about the child’s functioning in the classroom. An observation provides information about the functional skills in a group setting. The child’s ability to attend, follow directions, complete work, and interact with others are best observed in the classroom.

We can compose all emails, letters, and responses for parents according to the clients needs.

Evaluation and comparison of school programs allows us to make recommendations about school and program placement issues. Levy Educational Advocates are available to visit schools, review curriculums, and determine if there is a good fit between the student and school.
