Anchored Advocacy

Anchored Advocacy is for parents who are worried about their child’s schooling and need calm, informed support to navigate what comes next.

This is not about fighting schools or pushing harder. It’s about advocating with clarity, confidence, and regulation - so your child is properly supported and you don’t burn out in the process.

What this looks like

Anchored Advocacy is often:

• short-term and high-touch

• tailored to your specific situation

• focused on clarity and next steps

Support may include:

• consultation sessions

• meeting preparation or debriefing

• support during key school moments

This support is for you if:

• Your child is struggling at school (emotionally, behaviourally, or academically)

• You’re navigating diagnoses, adjustments, or ongoing communication with school

• You feel overwhelmed, unsure what to ask for, or exhausted from explaining your child over and over

• You’re second-guessing yourself and carrying constant worry or guilt

You don’t need to do more. You need support that helps you feel steady again.
