I work alongside a team of individuals and external organizations to develop and deliver technical assistance and professional development to various stakeholders in the special education/disability community with the goal of improving educational outcomes for students with disabilities. I work to develop professional development and technical assistance initiatives to enhance family and community engagement in schools. This role requires collaboration with regional partners to provide capacity building and cultivate school and community-based partnerships, as well as conducting group trainings on disability and special education topics, assisting families and professionals. This role requires an understanding of educational systems change as well as disability policies, special education, eective family engagement, and inclusive educational environments.
