Educational Advocate

Hi!

Our daughter is having a very difficult time getting the education that she deserves. Her IEP is basically ignored by all her teachers. She suffers from ADHD (inattentive presentation) and autism. Her failing grades have fed into her depression and she finds relief in self-harm. It was suggested to me that we should consider finding an educational advocate. Has anyone here used one and how did you go about finding one? Thank you!
