Center for Family Involvement

"Thank you so much for your time, and sharing your knowledge and experience with me! I will absolutely check in with you moving forward as I’m sure I will have more questions at some point. Thank you for being so informative and understanding!"

"After we spoke you gave me a contact who was extremely helpful. Thank you for listening to me and passionately empathizing with my situation to arrive at next steps and solutions. This is no way close to being resolved but you have been such a help by reviving me in my efforts, making me feel supported and also validating concerns. Thank you and I will continue to keep you in the loop. (Trying not to cry while writing this.)"

"I just want to say thank you. We could not have done this alone. The help you offered to families with kids that struggle in school is priceless. Our family can’t thank you enough for your help."

"You can’t imagine how much you have changed our lives. Thank you!"

"Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the time and effort you spent with me to explain all the important points and processes in relation to my son’s IEP meeting. Thank you for your amazing support and care."

 "I just wanted to let you all know that [our navigator] was extremely helpful in providing assistance in obtaining a waiver for my son. She was professional in providing me with pertinent information about filling out forms properly. In addition, she was very patient in working with my schedule and answering any questions I had about disability services. All of the information she provided was accurate and I just wanted you all to know that she is most certainly an asset. I appreciate her so much."

"She got approved for the DD waiver! Well for the list anyway! But this brings me so much joy! And we’ve started our first bit of counseling! I cannot thank you enough. I would not be where I am right now if not for your guidance and you being in my village. Thank you for everything you have done!"

"I know it is weird for a principal to tell a parent to get reach out to an advocate, but I love the work you do for babies and their families. Thanks for all you do to advocate for babies and their families."

"Thank you so much for both of your kind assistance. It came just when we needed it most!"

"She thoroughly navigated the turbulent waters, calmed my fears, and educated my husband and I about the specialized services that can be provided by the school.  She fought for my child’s educational rights with such finesse while I watched her work “magic” on the team."

"Since our last IEP meeting our son has been receiving his notes and his grades show it!! His History grade went from a 34 to a 91!! I can’t thank you enough for being in his corner. YOU ARE AMAZING!"

"I just wanted to say thank you so much for all you do. I am so lucky that I had you, I would have been so lost without you there. I am so appreciative to have you by my side. The work you do is so under appreciative and I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart."

"Thank you for what you have done for so many years!!! You definitely are my person."

"I just have to tell you Brinley’s entire demeanor has changed about school since joining Ms. M’s classroom! She’s actually happy after school and so excited to go to school every day! I thank you from the bottom of my soul for everything you do and continue to do for our beautiful babies! The world needs more people like you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! "
