Finding a Special Education Advocate

Question:

I need a special education advocate. How do I go about finding one in my State?

Answer:

The Council of Parent Attorneys and Advocates, COPAA, has a list of attorneys and advocates at their website: http://www.copaa.net. Click the link, "Find and Attorney/Advocate."

Keep in mind that not all States have COPAA attorneys or advocates. Contact an attorney or advocate in a State closest to where you live. If that attorney or advocate cannot help you, he or she might be able to refer you to another one who can help you.
