Client Advocacy
Your Biggest Advocate
Our Advocacy Team
Understanding the ins and outs of the school system becomes easier when you have a knowledgeable team by your side.
At Hello ABA, we are excited to offer education consulting to help parents navigate the special education process. Our team of education consultants & BCBA’s work hand in hand to prioritize your child and family’s best interests.
Our Team Helps By
Navigating School Systems
Is your child starting school or struggling to perform the way you know they can?
Our team joins your in school meetings to ensure your child’s needs aren’t just heard but also actively addressed.
Deciphering Educational
Records
The technical jargon in school documents can make them very difficult to understand.
Our team helps you break down these records, giving you a clearer picture of your child’s academic, behavioral, and social-emotional progress. This helps you participate more actively in your child’s learning journey and make informed decisions for their future.
Education for Parents
Special education policies are state, county, and even school specific.
We walk you through the important laws and rules to equip you with the knowledge to be a stronger voice for your child. We help you determine what support services your child may need and how to ask for them.
Observations and Recommendations
To offer the most effective help, we observe at school, in the community, and/or in the home. By gathering first-hand information from you, school staff, and other service providers, we determine which specific strategies will work best for your child.
Resource Identification and Collaboration
You’re never alone on this journey; a whole network of experts is just a call away.
We introduce you to our trusted evaluators, therapists, and psychologists, making sure you have a robust support system that extends far beyond our walls to be the strong pillar your child needs.
Behavioral Programs in Schools
Consistency is key, especially when it comes to learning and behavior. We design and advocate for effective behavior modification programs in your child’s school. Our collaborations with teachers ensure your child gets the consistent support they need in all settings.
Our
Process
Initial Consultation
First, we get to know your family! We meet you and your child so we can best understand how we can help. During this meeting, we discuss your concerns and the goals we want to achieve. We then develop a plan to reach those goals as quickly, smoothly, and collaboratively as possible.
Record Review
Once we identify your desired outcomes, we initiate a comprehensive review of your child’s school records. This includes your child’s IEP/504, academic assessments, speech/language assessments, occupational therapy assessments, psychological assessments, and all other related documents.
Based on our analysis, we identify changes that could help set your child up for even more success.
Observations
To offer the most effective help and support, we observe at school, in the community, and/or in the home. By gathering first-hand information from you, school staff, and other service providers, we can determine which specific strategies work best for your child.
Recommendations and Collaboration
Next, we put our recommendations into writing. We outline exactly how interventions can be implemented and adjusted to fit your child’s needs. Depending on the nature of your concern, we:
- Attend IEP, 504, and other meetings
- Develop IEP/504 goals
- Monitor the implementation of IEP/504 plans
- Conduct behavioral and curricular assessments
- Develop behavior interventions plans (BIP)
- Develop data collection systems
- Develop reinforcement systems
- Develop educational and behavioral resources (i.e., datasheets, worksheets, lessons, activities, projects)
- Recommend communication modalities
Referrals
If we can’t provide what your child needs, we find someone who can! We know we can’t do it all, so we have developed a trusted list of providers who are ready to help
