Parents of children with a disability have a role greater than mom or dad. From the minute they learn a diagnosis, they take on a new title: advocate. Amanda DeLuca has specialized in helping other parents advocate for their children, specifically through the IEP process. In this episode, Amanda shares some of her expert advice with Fuel Your Purpose listeners. Parents who have a child with a disability -- this is a can’t-miss episode!
Amanda DeLuca lives in Ohio with her husband, is a mom of 2 to Monroe, and Jackson. Her son is on the autism spectrum and is what inspired her to begin her journey through advocacy in the IEP process. Amanda is a certified Master IEP coach and proudly serves family both locally and remotely to empower them to come to the iep table with confidence while working collaboratively with their team. You can learn more about her IEP consulting business on her page: Advocate.Out.Loud- Amanda DeLuca. In her free time she enjoys teaching at her dance studio, and writing for her page Jackson’s Journey, Jackson’s Voice, and serves on the board of the More Than A Caregiver Project.
