233. Helping Your Child with Disabilities through the School System with Utah Parent Center

Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.

Some days, advocating for your child feels like a full-time job you never applied for.

In this episode, Niki sits down with Esperanza Reyes from the Utah Parent Center to talk about what it actually looks like to support a child with disabilities inside the school system without burning out, shutting down, or feeling like you’re constantly fighting uphill.

This conversation is about collaboration instead of conflict. Progress instead of perfection. And learning how to hold high expectations for your child while still honoring where they are right now.

You’ll hear why you don’t have to do this alone, how to partner with schools more effectively, and where to find real support when the system feels overwhelming.

If school meetings leave you drained or unsure if you’re doing enough, this episode is for you!
