Mission Statement

provide support for children with special needs through affordable advocacy and resources to empower parents/guardians to represent their children's interests in public education.

Description

ABLED Advocacy was founded with a commitment to improving access to special education services in public schools for low-income families.

The growing awareness of parents who were overwhelmed by the policies and procedures of Special Education Laws and the development and implementation of appropriate Individualized Education Programs led to formalization of volunteer efforts, incorporating as a non-profit organization in Massachusetts and receiving a 501c3 federal designation in 2013. Word of mouth referrals continued to grow as parents throughout the Merrimack Valley began to seek out their services and advocacy

To date, ABLED Advocacy has served about 100 families in the Merrimack Valley.
