Mastering Written State Complaints

My name is Shannon, and I am a non-attorney special education advocate who is passionate about empowering parents, caregivers and guardians! I began advocating for my foster children, and continued advocating as a parent, teacher and foster parent for over 14 years. I have extensive training in special and general education, and have two masters degrees in education (specializing in exceptional education and educational leadership).In my free time, I love watercolor painting (although I am terrible at it), reading books with my daughter, traveling to eat new food and learn about new-to-me cultures and places, and taking long, slow, meandering walks smell tours with my Basset Hound, Cupcake.Our MissionAdvocacy Unlocked, LLC empowers caregivers to successfully advocate for an equitable and inclusive education. We strengthen the team, so that all children have the education they deserve.Our VisionAdvocacy Unlocked, LLC serves for the day when caregivers and schools work seamlessly, when each child is cherished, and when linguistic, ethnic, racial, socioeconomic, learning and ability differences are celebrated.
