I provide a variety of consultation, coaching, and product creation services for educators, administrators, families, and community members to support inclusive education. My services and products are paperless, remote, and nationwide.
No matter your experience with inclusive education, I aim to help individuals, groups, and organizations:
I have developed an exclusive framework that includes both a product and a process that creates a shift in the entire IEP cycle for students, families, and educators. It is not like anything you have seen!
This process leads to a more meaningful, focused, and supportive blueprint (aka IEP) for a learner's inclusive educational journey because we are leveraging objective information and evidence-based resources (all hyperlinked for the team) to enhance everyone’s understanding of inclusive education and capacity to support the learner.
In this process, I will support you as you learn how to:
Once I started this process myself, we have had more collaborative, thoughtful, and smooth meetings. We have avoided surprises along the way too by being proactive and open. Our annual review meeting was brief and celebratory, and I was even able to share a 25-minute video with them about inclusive education, because we worked on the IEP together in advance!
I will coach you how to utilize this process based on your individual needs. We will create a slide deck that serves as a resource for the entire team that we revisit throughout the year and use in IEP development - literally informing the sections of the document to make sure it is individualized and meaningful. And, just like the IEP, it's a living document that will grow with the learner where they can make it their own!
Colleagues that I have shared this with have said things like:
Families that I have worked with have said things like:
We know that educators and families have lots on their plates. I can support you in learning about philosophies, practices, and tools needed to foster equity, inclusion, and student empowerment! We will work together to customize the content and create a structure and path that will meet your needs!
Sample Topics
Universal Crossings Inclusion Club is for everyone with a shared interest in equity, inclusion, and student empowerment!
Consider this a live, membership course in inclusive education and other current issues in disability. Resources will include books, research and other articles, blog posts, guidance documents, evidence-based content from renowned organizations and professionals, and written pieces and videos from self-advocates. I provide a unique lens through which to view these resources so that you can truly use the information in the most effective ways.
The Story Behind Universal Crossings Inclusion Club:
I've worn many hats in education over the last two decades and - in my quest for equity, inclusion, and student empowerment - I've curated an amazing collection of resources and strategies! There are SO many that I can't help but share!
In the past, when I shared this information with both colleagues and parents, they were all extremely thankful, but it was a challenge to digest all at once! So I wanted to create a forum to be able to share things bit-by-bit and be with you to unpack all of the content. I feel that doing this collaboratively will help create deeper understandings and develop more sustainable inclusive practices!
We know we need everyone at the table when it comes to creating the inclusive communities in which we want to live, work, learn, and grow - that's why ALL are welcome!
