Vested Advocates offers professional advocacy services that focuses on the mental health component of special education.
With a comprehensive understanding of how mental health impacts learning, our team regularly assists parents of children with mental health conditions, allowing them to obtain effective supports that address issues with social skills and self-confidence.
Our advocates often help parents get schools to successfully address accommodations for a variety of mental health conditions, including school anxiety, academic stress, depression, school phobia, and school avoidance.
Most parents understand that mental health has a profound effect on learning. It’s often hard enough to understand what types of accommodations are right for your child, never mind getting your school to comply with them.
We assist families with navigating the the special education process and communicating with school personnel to ensure accommodations are being honored.
