Our Mission

At Education Advocates of America, our mission is to champion the rights and needs of children with unique educational needs by fostering a collaborative and respectful partnership with school districts and community agencies.

We are dedicated to ensuring that every child receives the services they deserve through compassionate advocacy, inclusive practices, and active community support. Our goal is to empower caregivers with the resources and support they need to navigate the educational landscape, while also educating providers and parents on how to effectively advocate for children. By equipping families and professionals with the knowledge and tools necessary for advocacy, we strengthen the broader community’s ability to support children with diverse learning needs.

Together, we strive to build bridges, not barriers, to enhance the educational experience for all.  

Advocacy

Advocacy is at the heart of what we do. We stand alongside parents, caregivers, and private providers delivering expert guidance and support during Individualized Education Plan (IEP) meetings. Our advocates work collaboratively with our clients and school districts to ensure that each child's unique needs are met with the appropriate services and accommodations. By fostering open communication and mutual respect, we aim to create a positive and productive environment where every child's educational journey is prioritized.

Empowerment

We give parents, caregivers and private providers the tools and knowledge they need to confidently navigate the educational system. We offer resources, workshops, and personalized support to help community members understand their rights and options. By empowering these individuals, we enable them to become strong advocates for children, ensuring that their voices are heard and their children's needs are met. We know that informed and engaged stakeholders are key to a child's success.

Success

Success for us means seeing children with special needs thrive in inclusive and supportive educational settings. We measure success by the progress and achievements of the children we advocate for, as well as the strengthened relationships between families, caregivers, private providers and school districts. Our goal is to create a pathway to success for every child by ensuring they receive the services and support they need to reach their full potential. Through collaboration and dedication, we strive to make success a reality for all children and their families.

Testimonials

  • I cannot emphasize enough how invaluable the assistance of an IEP advocate has been in our journey through the special education system.

    Kaisy, Parent

  • Gabrielle has always had an unwavering belief in my son's potential, and she utilizes her expertise to secure the best possible supports and services for him.

    Allison

  • Right from the beginning, I saw how passionate Jamie was in helping my kids and how she truly cared. My children’s school was reluctant to make them eligible for ESE services for years, even though they both had medical diagnoses and were extremely behind academically. But with her expertise and persistence, we were finally able to prove their eligibility without having to file for due process. I just felt so much more comfortable and secure when she attended our meetings because she is very fluent in educational law and our rights as parents. I highly recommend her team!

    Magela D.

  • Dr. Gabrielle Baker has been a blessing for my family! IEP meetings can be very scary, but not with her. Her impressive knowledge navigates us through the meeting, which gives us confidence the best plan is in place for our child.

    Jennifer

  • She is knowledgeable and the true definition of an advocate. I am so blessed to have come across her because I felt alone trying to advocate for my son. Understanding and researching the laws and district policies took much work/hours. Dr. Gabrielle Baker came into the picture, and it was a huge relief of stress off our shoulders. She attended an IEP, and I was blown away by how she managed it. Our IEP was successful, and I couldn’t have done it without her. She is a bulldog!!!

    Sonia B.

  • I am so thankful to have come across Jamie’s information and took the chance to contact her. She has made this process so much better, and she is a wealth of information. Coming from Ohio, there are so many things we didn’t know about that should have been done years ago, and finally feel like we’re on the right track! I highly recommend Jamie and her team for anyone looking for advocate services!

    Tracy S.

  • After having countless issues with our school district not adhering to my son’s IEP, frustrated and at my wit’s end, I reached out to Education Advocates for help. Jamie attended my son’s IEP meeting, and saying she represented me would be an understatement. She was professional, direct, and left no stones unturned. I really felt like I was on a winning team. With her help, we were able to acquire my son’s service logs and the drafted consents for testing we requested that same day. For anyone having issues navigating the intricate world of IEPs and needing help, Jamie and her team are your go-to. I don’t know what I would have done without their help.
