It is the job of the Special Education advocate to be a skillful problem solver and seek to prevent problems; only when “preventions fail” must the advocate “seek to remedy any violations of a student’s rights” (Turnbull, Turnbull, Erwin, Soodak 154). Another equally important aspect of being a skilled Special Education advocate is “keeping your conscience primed,” this refers to the ability to “feel…a sense of concern, irritations and sometimes even outrage when children and youth with exceptionalities and their families experience injustice”.

When it comes to helping hunger, we have weekly opportunities for anyone in need to be served large portions of fruits, vegetables, canned goods, bread, fish and meat.  We have volunteered weekly at a local food bank in order to learn the time commitment, tools, vehicles and promotions required to run a successful food bank program that will serve the hunger of our immediate area.  To learn more, contact Jennifer Thomas.
