How a Professional Dyslexia Advocate Can Help
_.jpg){kind=icon}
Getting your child the services and support they need in school can be daunting, stressful, complex, and time-consuming.
A Certified Dyslexia Advocate can help:
-
understand your child's unique needs and uncover what is keeping them from reaching their full potential
-
create a custom educational plan that will work best for their unique learning profile
-
build relationships and facilitate conversations at school meetings to get desired results
-
provide guidance and support to parents as we work together to resolve any conflicts
-
work tirelessly to obtain the appropriate special education support and services your child needs to succeed
Not Sure Where to Start?
The best place to start is with a conversation.
Advocacy is a personal journey. Everyone's trip is a little bit different.
For that reason, the best advocacy services are personalized just for you and your family.
Let's get to know each other through a conversation so that you know exactly what step to take next!
What Our Clients Say
I have worked with several advocates and Lorraine is by far the most competent and effective advocate to get students the services they need. Lorraine is THE reason my child received 1-on-1 OG during middle school, and she truly is the best of the best.
Jody
Parent of a 9th grader
Once Lorraine joined the process, they finally listened to me (the parent), the school district's Dyslexia experts, and the research.
Amy
Parent of a 6th grader
It was all so overwhelming...When I met Lorraine it was like a huge weight, that I had been carrying for over 4 years, was lifted off my shoulders because she handled everything.
Parent of a 5th grader
She was caring and compassionate, explained issues, the process and our options thoroughly and clearly. We never felt rushed or pressed for time. She really made the IEP meetings bearable. I would recommend her 100% of the time, without hesitation!
Erin
Parent of a 9th grader
After working with Lorraine and her team for over a year, Liz knows the value of
comprehensive and collaborative advocacy services.
You can't assume that the public school system will just take care of your child's needs.
Having an advocate ensures that your child is set up for success with the proper plan in place.
We were not familiar with the process or the resources available (or not available), but Lorraine guided us through the entire journey and always kept us informed every step of the way.
Kari
Parent of a 5th grader
After attending an IEP meeting with Lorraine, Megan Pinchback, Certified Academic Language Therapist and owner of Dyslexia on Demand, saw the difference our professional and comprehensive advocacy makes for our clients.

"If I EVER need an advocate for one of my kids, I want you, Lorraine Hightower. You are amazing at what you do!
I have seen several advocates and attorneys at work in the same situation and I would choose you.
Amazing work for that child!"
