Thirty-three years ago, I walked out of my son Dylan’s IEP meeting with my heart pounding and my mind blank.
Everyone in the room had smiled politely. They’d nodded at “plans” and “goals.”
But on the drive home, it hit me:
I didn’t actually know what had been decided.
Had I agreed to something I shouldn’t have?
Did they commit to anything real?
Or was it just polite words with no follow-through?
That combination of confusion and defeat, of feeling dismissed and doubting yourself at the same time is something I still hear from parents every single week.
And back then? There was
no tool to help me untangle what had actually happened in that meeting. I was left second-guessing.
Fast forward three decades: I built the AI tool I wish I’d had.
It’s called Decode IEP Meetings: Said, Decided & Unclear.
You drop in your meeting notes or transcript, and it does the heavy lifting:
😍 Sorts what was actually said.
😍 Clarifies what was decided (or what wasn’t).
😍 Flags what’s still unclear, possible violations AND even gives you next steps.
Usually, this tool is reserved for parents inside my Connecting for Change™ community. But because you registered for the Advocacy MasterClass, I’m opening it up for you.
