  • Why You Need an Education Advocate, Now

    Why You Need an Education Advocate, Now
    Jul 25 2023
    How do you know if your child needs extra support in school? How can you gauge whether or not your child is where they should be academically? And at what point should a child be considered for special education services? These are all questions that are not easy to answer. Host of EDinsights, Tiffany Brown, Esq., interviews Lauren Allen, creator of a Black Mom’s Guide to IEPs. If you're a parent who is considering seeking special education services for your student (IEPs, 504 plans, etc.), this episode is for you! Tiffany and Lauren touch on the process of seeking special education supports and about the challenges families encounter, especially Black families, when pursuing those services. The bottom line is that Black mothers, Black students, and the Black family need a community of people who share information and resources, and advocates are the perfect people to add to that proverbial village. Lauren also discusses her new initiative, "A Black Moms Guide to IEPs," which is growing and transforming lives each day.
