Calm, clear IEP and 504 advocacy-

without the chaos.

Finding Pathways Advocacy provides professional IEP advocacy and 504 plan support for families navigating special education services. We help parents understand their rights, prepare for school meetings, and secure appropriate services through clear communication, strategic planning, and ongoing advocacy.

What It's Like to Work Together

Every family begins in a different place, but the goal is the same: moving from uncertainty to a clear plan.

Together, we'll:


✔ Understand your child's strengths and needs.

✔ Review your IEP or 504 documents.

✔ Prepare for meetings with confidence.

✔ Develop clear communication strategies.

✔ Create practical next steps you can take right away.



You don't have to navigate special education alone. I'll help you find a clear path forward.

From overwhelmed to empowered.

Shared stories from parents.

Sarah has continued working with our family by staying connected with us, inquiring about our son. To say she is a hero to our family is an understatement, and it is a great privilege to write this recommendation on her behalf.

Parent, Santa Cruz

After many years of going up against the school district(s) by myself, I finally started working with Sarah and felt like for the first time we had someone in our corner. Previously I had always felt very overwhelmed, outnumbered, intimidated and at times even bullied sitting around that IEP table, but that changed drastically when Sarah came on the scene. 

Parent , Santa Cruz

She helps bridge the gap between what students need and what schools can realistically provide. Sarah is very responsive, professional, thorough, proactive, creative, empathetic, non-judgemental and supportive.

  • Why hire an advocate?

    I take the emotion out of the equation. I will advocate for your child by collaborating with the team for the best outcome. 

  • Do you offer free consultations?

    I do! You can select a time via my website so we can connect and see how I can help you. 

  • How much does it cost to get through an IEP?

    On average it is 10 hours, which includes document review, correspondence with the school team, meetings, and a finalized version of the IEP. This varies case by case.
