Parent Coaching
Sometimes families don't need someone to attend a meeting—they simply need someone to help them understand the process.
DEA's Parent Coaching service provides individualized guidance that empowers families to make informed educational decisions with confidence. Whether you're preparing for your first school meeting, trying to understand an evaluation, or simply have questions about your child's educational journey, we're here to help.
