About

    Advocacy Counts, Inc. has the expert base to ensure their clients will gain access to free and appropriate public school education and related services in the least restrictive environment their special needs kids deserve.

We help parents obtain occupational, physical as well as speech and language therapies for their children in the school they attend. We go to great lengths to make sure that every child we represent receives a high quality meaningful public education he or she deserves.
