In this conversation, GeLisa Marie introduces the first 3 products in the Parent Power Pack, an advocacy starter kit designed to help parents navigate the complexities of Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) for their children. This mini series is here when ever there are new products for parents of neuro-diverse learners.

She emphasizes the importance of reviewing current IEPs, preparing for meetings, and effectively communicating with educators and children.

The discussion covers strategies for parents to advocate for their child's needs, ensuring clarity and understanding throughout the IEP process, and fostering positive relationships with school staff.

GeLisa also highlights the significance of post-meeting follow-ups and ongoing communication with both educators and children to support educational goals.
