The program started on September 2, 2024. All lessons have been recorded and you'll have access to all past lessons. The Journey Into Advocacy Community is a comprehensive six-month program tailored to provide you with in-depth knowledge and support. Each month, a new lesson will be added to your learning library, covering a different module to build your advocacy skills step by step.

In addition to the monthly lessons, you'll have the opportunity to participate in a live Q&A session where you can get your questions answered and engage directly with our expert advocates. Our online community will also serve as a valuable resource, offering ongoing support and interaction with peers who are on a similar journey.

We are committed to ensuring that you receive thorough and personalized guidance, which is why we include extensive reviews to reinforce your learning and address any areas where you might need additional clarification. This well-rounded approach ensures that you not only gain the knowledge you need but also feel confident and supported throughout your advocacy journey.

The Journey Into Advocacy course stands out for several compelling reasons:

1. Focus on Carry-Over Skills: We understand that acquiring knowledge is one thing, but applying it effectively in real-life situations is another. Our program places a strong emphasis on carry-over skills, ensuring that you can translate what you've learned into practical, actionable steps. This focus helps bridge the gap between theory and practice, making advocacy more effective in real-world contexts.

2. Personalized Approach: We are committed to meeting each parent and professional where they are. Our program is designed to adapt to your unique needs and circumstances, providing tailored support that addresses your specific challenges and goals. This personalized approach ensures that you receive the most relevant and useful guidance for your situation.

3. Experienced Advocates: Our team includes three dedicated advocates with diverse and valuable backgrounds:

Jordan and Courtney: Both have lived experiences with disabilities and having IEP's growing up, giving them firsthand insight into the challenges faced by students and families. Their personal experiences enrich the program, offering practical perspectives and empathy.

Carrie: As a formal teacher and a parent, Carrie brings a professional and educational viewpoint. Her experience in the classroom and as a parent adds depth to the understanding of educational systems and parental advocacy.

4. Passionate and Dedicated Support: Our passion for advocacy is a driving force behind the course. We are deeply committed to empowering you with the knowledge and skills needed to advocate effectively. This dedication is reflected in every aspect of our program, from the carefully crafted lessons to the supportive community environment.

5. Collaborative Learning Environment:
Unlike many programs, we emphasize collaboration among our advocates and with our participants. By working together and sharing insights, we ensure that our approach is well-rounded and inclusive, addressing various perspectives and experiences.

6. Comprehensive and Practical Guidance: Our program offers not only theoretical knowledge but also practical strategies that you can implement immediately. We provide actionable steps, real-life examples, and ongoing support to help you apply what you’ve learned effectively.

At the heart of the Journey Into Advocacy Community is a deep connection rooted in our shared passion for supporting your students and understanding the profound impact that disability can have on education. We believe that accessibility is a fundamental human right, and this conviction drives our commitment to creating a supportive and inclusive learning environment.

Our team—Courtney, Jordan, and Carrie—works closely together, blending our diverse perspectives and expertise to provide the best outcomes for students. We utilize critical thinking and collaborative problem-solving to address the unique needs of each individual, ensuring that our lessons are accessible and comprehensible for everyone. This collaborative approach allows us to deliver instruction in a way that resonates with all learners, making the advocacy process more effective and inclusive.

We take pride in maintaining an inclusive space where discrimination of any kind is not tolerated. Our community is built on respect, empathy, and mutual support, ensuring that every participant feels valued and understood.

The Fighting for My Voice Advocacy Team is excited to guide you through our comprehensive program, bringing you personalized instruction and expert insights drawn from our collective experience. We are dedicated to providing you with the best support possible, and each lesson will be personally taught by our skilled advocates.

Our team boasts over 20 years of combined experience, specializing in a range of developmental and learning challenges, including childhood apraxia of speech, sensory processing disorder (SPD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), dyspraxia, and dyslexia. This extensive background allows us to offer a deep understanding of these conditions and the most effective strategies for overcoming the associated obstacles.

By working directly with us, you'll benefit from our hands-on approach and tailored guidance, ensuring that each lesson is adapted to meet your unique needs and goals. We are committed to empowering you with the knowledge and tools necessary to advocate effectively for yourself or your loved ones, drawing on our rich experience and passion for making a difference.
