Advocacy

Courageous Community Services is dedicated to supporting the self-advocacy efforts of individuals.

We train individuals, parents, caregivers, and educators to become better advocates for individuals with developmental disabilities.

Courageous Community Services is excited to offer school-age special education advocacy services in collaboration with Bright Horizons Advocacy & Consulting.

Contrary to the popular myth, special education advocacy does not necessarily require a lawyer.

However, effective education advocacy requires knowledge of applicable law at the state and federal level and an understanding of disabilities, educational theories and practices, and school environments.

It also requires an understanding of the family experience and an ability to facilitate communication.

We are proud to offer a parent/student advocate’s unique services to assist our clients.
