Do you wonder how best to help?
The basic tool you need to get more or different services from your school is usually a comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation. Sometimes, the school doesn't see what you see. Our comprehensive and objective document is the first step in opening a dialog with school personnel, so that together you can develop a strategy to achieve your goals for your child. If there is something besides a learning difficulty involved, such as attention deficits or behavioral problems, or if there are multiple issues, you need to understand your child's strengths and challenges in order to help. Parents read our report - written to avoid technical jargon - and say, "this is our child!" We do much more than just deliver a report. We will sit with you and develop an effective strategy to get your child what he or she needs, taking full account of his or her assets and challenges. We understand what the schools can and can't do, and how to ask effectively. If needed, we can supplement the office evaluation with in-school support, including team meetings and classroom evaluations. (You may wish to read about how the advocacy process works.) If you also need services outside of school, or if you need a different school, the report has the information you need to find the right placement. Or, if your child's needs exceed what schools can do, we can help you organize a multi-disciplinary approach. The goal of Neurodevelopment Associates is to obtain the best possible outcome for your child's continued learning and growth. We are here to support you as you advocate for your child.
