Meet Your Advocate

Meet Meghan Moore,
BCBA, MA, and the advocate
who knows the ins and outs.

Meghan Moore is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst with a Master's in Special Education from San Diego State University. Before she became your advocate, she spent nearly a decade on the other side of the table, writing IEPs, leading eligibility meetings, and designing behavior programs inside California's largest school districts.

"I've been in that room before you arrive. I know what's being discussed, and now I use that to fight for your child."

That experience isn't a talking point. It's the reason her families walk out of meetings with services that other advocates miss entirely.

Meet Your Advocate

Meet Courtney Aseltine,
advocate, educator,
and a parent who's been there.

Courtney has sat at hundreds of IEP tables as a public school educator and administrator. Then she became a professional advocate. And the whole time, she's been doing it as the parent of two children with disabilities, which means she understands exactly what it feels like to sit in your seat.

"I know this process from every angle. That's not a credential you earn in a course, it's something you live."

Her youngest son is Deaf with additional diagnoses including SPD, ADHD, and Dyslexia. Her older son has mental health support needs. She's navigated this system for more than a decade as a parent. Courtney is a COPAA member, a Guardian ad litem in NC's foster care system, and holds a Trauma-Informed Practice certification from the University of Michigan.

What Sets Us Apart

The school-side advantage your child deserves.

Most advocates have never worked inside a school district. Meghan spent nearly a decade on the school side as a Behavior Analyst, Education Specialist, and Program Specialist. Courtney spent eight years as a public school educator and administrator. Together they've sat at hundreds of IEP tables, and they know exactly what happens in the room before you arrive.

That 360° perspective isn't something you can learn from a certification course, and it's why their families walk out of meetings with services other advocates miss.
