"The Inclusion Advocacy Toolkit has been a game-changer for our family. As a parent, I didn't know how to navigate IEP meetings or make my voice heard. This toolkit helped point me in the right direction and made me more confident. The checklists, and scripts made it so much easier to communicate with the IEP team and ensure my child’s needs were truly being met. I finally feel like I know what I'm talking about... and can speak up for my child's needs. My son is now in a more inclusive environment because of it. Thank you for creating such an invaluable resource!"

A Note from Diana...

Hey there! So, why me?

I created this Inclusion Advocacy Toolkit for parents like us—parents navigating the world of IEPs, special education, and advocacy, all while ensuring our children feel a true sense of belonging in their school community.

I know how overwhelming this journey can be because I’m walking it, too. I have participated in thousands of IEPs as a teacher, bilingual school psychologist, and director of special education. And I have STILL been surprised by how different it feels on this side of the table, as a parent, and I understand the questions, worries, and determination that come with wanting the best for our children.

This toolkit is designed to provide the tools and confidence to advocate effectively, helping our children thrive in an inclusive environment where they’re valued for who they are.

My hope is that it inspires you, helps you to build strong school partnerships, and create a future where your child feels seen, heard, and celebrated.

You’re not alone in this journey. Together, we can make a difference—for your child, my child, and so many others.

Yes! I Want It!
