When your child receives a diagnosis, the next steps aren’t always clear.
You may have just heard the words autism, ADHD, developmental delay, or learning disability and suddenly you’re handed reports, acronyms, and recommendations… but very little direction.
​
​
Many parents ask:
-
What does this diagnosis really mean?
-
Does my child need a 504 or Special Education?
-
How do I talk to the school?
-
Where do I start?
​
​
You don’t have to navigate this alone.
