I am a parent of two children with special needs and have advocated for all children for over 14 years. I work closely with the IDEA Partnership and the NYS Commission of Quality of Care and Advocates for Persons with Disabilities. I also co-facilitate the NYS Learning Community for Family and School Collaboration. Partners in Policy Making was one of the best experiences offered to me in my life.
