Special Education Advocacy Services

Planting Seeds Learning offers Special Education Advocacy. I understand the challenges of navigating the IEP process.  My Special Education Advocacy is grounded in IDEA and Minnesota state statutes. Educated by COPAA, I use my expertise work diligently to ensure that your child receives everything they need to succeed in school — and beyond.

  • The only local advocate who can attend meetings in person, providing real-time support and guidance. 

  • Evidence-driven advocacy that aligns with IDEA, Section 504, and Minnesota statutes.

  • Clear, statute-based communication that schools respond to.

  • Specialized experience supporting children with significant behavioral needs.

  • A belief that every child deserves access to the general education classroom for the greatest opportunity to thrive.

All packages are flat-fee and include flexible payment options.

Half down at the time of scheduling. Two equal payments for the remaining balance.
