Education Advocacy
The Children's Advocate advises and advocates for families of students within general and special education in communities across Georgia. We assist parents and students at every stage of children's advocacy. Our work ranges from consultation, such as advice and strategy with regard to a child’s overall education and/or Individualized Education Program (IEP), through mediation at school level. We also offer supervised visitation by certified educators that are trained to care and address the needs of children everyday.
Supervised Visitation
The Children's Advocate provides supervised visitation allowing parents in high conflict or high risk situations access to their children in a safe and supervised environment. Our goal is to provides families with the reassurance that their child is in a safe and healthy environment with proper supervision while building loving and developmentally appropriate relationships with parent and/or guardian.
