## About

Alaina Perkins Etress | Family Advocate (K–12) | Educational Consultant | Student Life Coach
                 ■■■■■■■                 
 I help overwhelmed families and educators with struggling learners achieve clarity, targeted school support, and a collaborative seat at the decision-making table. ​I know that sinking feeling when your child/student is struggling in school and you don’t know where to turn. You sit at a conference table surrounded by specialists, handed thick packets of testing data, and leave feeling unheard. As a mother of three, I understand the fierce instinct to protect your child’s future. But I also understand exactly how the system they are navigating works.
​My practice at AnchorUp Advocates is built on nearly two decades of viewing special education from every seat at the table: ​As an elementary educator: I know how 504 plans and IEP's function when implemented. I hold a M.Ed. in School Counseling, and I am an advocate. I meet you where you are - to help!:)
