  • “My daughter has had an extensive medical journey. She is non-verbal but her personality is big enough that words themselves aren’t enough to fully grasp who she is. Maura saw my daughter, her talents, her skills, her energy and her love and with all of that she also saw and heard our needs. Maura is proactive and she doesn’t quit!”

    Caregiver

  • “[She] helped me realize different ways we can be supporting students in which sparked my passion for teaching again. She was dedicated and a true advocate for students rights and an advocate for their families. She has brought fresh ideas to old practices that truly changed my practice long term. She speaks to and of students with a strengths-based approach to support students in the classroom which is not the norm in the field. She helps parents feel more comfortable and knowledgeable with the tedious and, sometimes scary, process of special education qualification in school.”

    Teaching Professional

  • "[My child and I] discovered new ways to communicate with each other... My daughter is more confident when using her various communicative tools that she will be heard and understood. I, as a parent, gained more confidence navigating the school system and support where support has been lacking.”

    Caregiver

  • "Maura changed the game with her [Professional Development sessions]. She helped me evaluate where in my practice I need to shift to become a more inclusive and holistic educator. She also included a ton of resources I could include in my lessons or small group targeted instruction. She also helped me learn about my biases and where I need to change- because even as a special education teacher, I still have biases within the community I serve”.
