概要
Advocacy isn’t about being the loudest voice in the room — it’s about being the most consistent and informed one.
In this episode of The Whole Child Advocate, Dominique McLellan shares the core philosophy behind her work: the most effective advocacy is parent-led and child-focused. When parents understand their rights, stay grounded in their child’s long-term needs, and lead with clarity and compassion, meetings become more productive — and outcomes become more meaningful.
You’ll learn:
What “parent-led advocacy” actually means (and what it doesn’t)
Why parents are the constant in their child’s educational journey
How to keep decisions centered on your child — not system convenience
Common advocacy pitfalls to avoid
How leadership rooted in love and information becomes empowerment
💡 Key Takeaway: When parents lead with love and information, advocacy becomes empowerment.
