Client Feedback
Transformative experience that changed my life for the better.
Had she not been there, they would have steam rolled me. If anyone is looking for an advocate to help them navigate their rights, she is an incredible resource. I highly recommend her.
We used Erica and Krystle for advocacy services, great experience with both!
This was one of the first IEP meetings where we felt listened to. At the start of this journey, I felt so small and defeated, but with Erica's guidance, I was able to achieve what my son needs to succeed in school.
