Parent Advocacy

Parent advocacy involves parents actively supporting and representing their children's needs within educational, healthcare, or community systems. It includes understanding their child's rights, communicating effectively with professionals, and working to ensure the child receives appropriate services, accommodations, or resources. Parent advocates may collaborate with schools, healthcare providers, or policymakers to improve outcomes and advocate for policies that benefit children. The goal is to empower parents to navigate complex systems confidently, ensuring their child's well-being, development, and success are prioritized and effectively supported.
