How Our Advocate Helped One Reader:

"I wanted to thank you for your "ask the advocate" column. I wrote in 3 months ago and Steve Glick answered my message. I ended up winning my battle with the school system and Tyler was able to remain at his grade  school. This is truly a wonderful service you provide....my thanks to you and Steve Glick for his advise."
