 | kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG Hi all, long time no chat! Kerri, ADHD/learning issues diagnosed as an adult. We never get snow days in Winnipeg, I had 2 before grade 3 and then never again. #LDchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane A1 – in the practical sense of advocating its time to begin to tell your child’s story. Your experiences with your child are a valuable piece of information when advocating. #ldchat |
 | Lisa Nelson @1in5awareness Hello. I am Lisa and I am co-founder of Decoding Dyslexia MA. I have quite a bit of experience advocating for my children + helping others. #ldchat #dyslexia #SpecialEducation |

| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG A1. Know what the student’s own goals are and what motivates them. No matter how young they are, they need to stay at the centre of the process of getting what THEY need, not what a formula suggests “should” work for them. #LDchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane A1 – What I found to be helpful for advocating was preparation, I spent time learning as much as could about #dyslexia #dysgraphia #ADHD #anxiety & #specialed #504 #ldchat |
| Understood @UnderstoodOrg Teachers, family members and friends can all be advocates for the students in their lives with #LD and #ADHD. Our @NCLDorg #advocacy training center is a great resource to get started: https://t.co/s0kvkF0050 #LDchat |

| Understood @UnderstoodOrg Understanding what your student with #LD and #ADHD may be going through is the first step. Read a mom's story about how understanding her child's #dysgraphia helped her be a stronger advocate: https://t.co/pGMh9cuKho #LDchat |

| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG A1. Also believe teaching developmentally appropriate self advocacy skills is one of the most important ways adults can advocate for kids. So many adults w/ don’t know how to ask for what they need. It has to start early. #LDchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane @pbest23 yes I tried to learn as much as I could #ldchat |
| Lisa Nelson @1in5awareness RT @UnderstoodOrg: Q1. How do we get started in becoming an advocate for students with #LD and #ADHD? #LDchat https://t.co/bk1WWu7EJA |
| Elizabeth C. Hamblet @echamblet #LDchat a1) I think it's important to get some information from reliable sources - (like Understood!). You should be sure that what you're sharing is correct - I find there's some questionable info out there. Don't want to spread misinformation. |
| Beth Mertens @mertensminute Yes!! I am constantly reading and learning. It makes me a better parent and a better professional. @ADDitudeMag and @UnderstoodOrg are my go to sites! #ldchat |

| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane RT @UnderstoodOrg: The second question is coming up… #LDchat |
| Amanda King Shevette @AmandaOKing A1. The resources of https://t.co/HbRBtnRygr have been INVALUABLE! #ldchat |
| Understood @UnderstoodOrg Q2. What can we do outside of school to #advocate for students with #LD and #ADHD? #LDchat https://t.co/SeME2tlLGh |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane RT @mertensminute: Yes!! I am constantly reading and learning. It makes me a better parent and a better professional. @ADDitudeMag and @UnderstoodOrg are my go to sites! #ldchat |
| Jenn Osen-Foss @UnderstoodJennO @holliewood24 Parenting and teaching can be so different! I have a recently diagnosed child, and it's been a definite struggle the last 3 years, even though I've been in sped for more than 12. #ldchat |
| Edie Brown @edielovesmath @UnderstoodOrg A1. Being in the fields (classroom) is the best way to become an advocate for older kids with ADHD and LD. I taught alone, co-taught, and was a special educator. Content: math, English, reading. Getting to know parents and colleagues are other good ways to begin too. #LDchat |
| Lisa Nelson @1in5awareness @UnderstoodOrg To get started in advocating for a child you must learn about the child’s disability, how it impacts him or her and federal + state laws that incl. the child’s rights. #LDChat #dyslexia #dysgraphia #dyscalculia #FAPE #IEP |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane @mertensminute @ADDitudeMag @UnderstoodOrg I also used the state PTI system here in VA @parentcenterhub to learn about the #specialed system #ldchat |
 | Bari Levin @BLevin11 @UnderstoodOrg Wish I could, have math class #ldchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane A2 – Another great question. Advocating for systemic change is a great way to help make change for other children and families who may be experiencing similar struggles #ldchat |
| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG A2. As an adult undiagnosed until university, my ADHD/LD affects me as much outside the classroom (or workplace) as it does inside of it. Important to realize that we learn everywhere and accommodations may have to be made everywhere, too. #LDchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane Yes building relationships with families #ldchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane RT @UnderstoodJennO: @holliewood24 Parenting and teaching can be so different! I have a recently diagnosed child, and it's been a definite struggle the last 3 years, even though I've been in sped for more than 12. #ldchat |
| Understood @UnderstoodOrg @Arewedoneyet45 So helpful! Make sure to use #LDchat in your tweets so everyone in the chat can see them. Thank you! |
| Beth Mertens @mertensminute @echamblet @ADDitudeMag @UnderstoodOrg 100% agree. The parent emails from @ADDitudeMag with quick easily accessible articles on discipline, food, medicine, & strategies have been invaluable to me. #ldchat |
| Understood @UnderstoodOrg Outside of your student's school, you can #advocate for policy change and do community outreach. Check out our Action Center to get more information: https://t.co/OGQjgvSP3r #LDchat |
| Jason Dowell Âû @Jgdowell A1 #LDchat |
| Amanda King Shevette @AmandaOKing A2. Be willing to share our stories #ldchat |
| Jenn Osen-Foss @UnderstoodJennO A2: One of the biggest helps I've seen in my own family is awareness and a willingness to talk about learning and attention issues. Through talking, my family has made great strides in the last few decades. #ldchat |
| Understood @UnderstoodOrg RT @KristinMatzKane: A2 – Another great question. Advocating for systemic change is a great way to help make change for other children and families who may be experiencing similar struggles #ldchat |
 | Jono 🇺🇦 @Ianatan_Duine @UnderstoodOrg #ldchat Q2: check for local agencies or community resources that specialize in either adhd or ld. Great opportunity for networking and advocacy. Saves on ‘inventing the wheel again’. |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane A2 – Looking at systemic advocacy boils down to telling your story again. School boards receive public comment or elected officials need to hear from their constituents. #ldchat #drivechange |
| Lisa Nelson @1in5awareness A2 To advocate outside of school, you need to put yourself out there both in person and on social media sharing not only your story but quality information to resources that can help others like https://t.co/jHJoVnr86p . #LDchat #Sped #IEP #advocacy |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane RT @UnderstoodOrg: @Arewedoneyet45 So helpful! Make sure to use #LDchat in your tweets so everyone in the chat can see them. Thank you! |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane A2 – A really great way to advocate on a larger level is to raise awareness. Social media!! Share info through #twitter #Facebook #insta . #LDchat |
| Lisa Nelson @1in5awareness RT @UnderstoodJennO: A2: A2: One of the biggest helps I've seen in my own family is awareness and a willingness to talk about learning and attention issues. Through talking, my family has made great strides in the last few decades. #ldchat |
| HDubs @holliewood24 A2) As a T, I have a large PLN that affords me the opportunity to advocate about LD. I'm also involved in some outstanding organizations like @PAECT which let me run a PD workshop about supporting LD S with tech & @PTACVoice which published my esssay on dyslexia. #ldchat |
| Tina Andrews @TMAndrews2006 A2 talk w people in other student frequented spaces #clubs, #scouts, #sportsteams, #familymembers, #friendshomes, about #LD #LDCHAT |

| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane Yes #tweet #post put the info out into the world so others can learn #raiseawareness #dyslexia #LD #AHDH #ldchat |
| pbest2 @pbest23 Stay updated in your local community or if you have your own son/daughter you could start a group in your local C for support #LDchat |
 | Tiffany Jenkins @tdcraw A2 share your story with members of your state departments education and legislative members, find your community of support that can help others with your story. #ldchat |
| Angela Lange @angela_lange25 @UnderstoodOrg A2: using your local library to reach families & hold advocacy information meetings that are free to everyone #ldchat |
| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG A2. As well, small or widespread (systemic) issues for people with ADHD/LD can be brought to the attention of your elected representatives. You’re their boss. #LDchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane So important #knowyourrights #ldchat |
| Amanda King Shevette @AmandaOKing A2. Does https://t.co/HbRBtnRygr have a presentation that could be used to present facts to parent groups, community groups etc? #ldchat |
| Edie Brown @edielovesmath @UnderstoodOrg A2. Self-advocacy is critical for teens and young adults with ADHD and LD. Understand IEP, accommodations, and learning preferences to prepare for work, further education. They lead teacher and IEP meetings. #LDchat |
| Understood @UnderstoodOrg Let's move onto Q3… #LDchat |
| Understood @UnderstoodOrg Q3. How can we encourage others to be advocates? #LDchat https://t.co/jZUfXX7Cqr |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane absolutely! Church too! #ldchat |
| Lisa Nelson @1in5awareness RT @KristinMatzKane: Yes #tweet #post put the info out into the world so others can learn #raiseawareness #dyslexia #LD #AHDH #ldchat |
| Lisa Nelson @1in5awareness RT @KristinMatzKane: @1in5awareness Helllooooo!!! Welcome! #ldchat |
| Elizabeth C. Hamblet @echamblet #LDchat a2) I think it also helps when parents tell others about their student's struggles - I think it helps destigmatize disabilities and lets others know there is a community for them. Of course, you have to be comfortable doing this; not everyone is. |
| Beth Mertens @mertensminute A2. Don't forget about coaches, dance teachers and the like! :) Collaborate with them, share the diagnosis and strategies to ensure your child has a successful experience in extra-curricular, too #LDchat |
| Angela Lange @angela_lange25 @UnderstoodOrg The more empowered families feel our schools will realize they need to step up & create more positive learning environments for all learners #ldchat |
| Decoding Dyslexia MA @DDyslexiaMA RT @KristinMatzKane: Cohosting w/ @UnderstoodOrg today at 12 noon. #parent #advocacy is the topic and I know some pretty terrific parents out there doing the work. #ldchat https://t.co/qGDX2F2k3f |
| Understood @UnderstoodOrg Talking about what you know or have experienced with family and friends can be a great place to start. Here are tips on how start the conversation about #LD and #ADHD: https://t.co/RgwWdZSBzU #LDchat |
| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG While I have not spoken to him about LD/ADHD (outside of #NationalPharmacare discussions), my Member of Parliament and staff have been phenomenal re #advocacy issues I’ve brought. I didn’t expect it, but found a great advocate in him. Impt to ignore party lines here, too. #LDchat |
| Decoding Dyslexia MA @DDyslexiaMA RT @KristinMatzKane: A2 – Another great question. Advocating for systemic change is a great way to help make change for other children and families who may be experiencing similar struggles #ldchat |
 | A Rose Pozzi @ARosePozzi @UnderstoodOrg #ldchat. I kept asking teachers if they thought my kids had #dyslexia No one knew. I finally found an admin at school that knew signs. Then the school wouldn't do anything to help because my child was not doing bad enough. As a atty I had to research the law |
| Jenn Osen-Foss @UnderstoodJennO @angela_lange25 @UnderstoodOrg Speaking of libraries, check out any advocacy or support groups that are using their space--you might find some great local advocacy groups that meet there! #ldchat |
| Tina Andrews @TMAndrews2006 A3 Support them as they get started. Share ideas, go with them at first. #ldchat |
| Angela Lange @angela_lange25 @UnderstoodOrg A3: knowledge is powerful & creates positive changes! The more schools realize families are equipped with strong but positive advocacy tools the more positive changes we will see #LDchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane Hi @echamblet totally agree knowing you are not alone! #soimportant #ldchat |
| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG As a coach of athletes with autism/down syndrome/ID, it is HUGELY helpful for coaches when parents share info they have about what helps their athlete. LOVED when a dad brought me his kid’s PT report; sparked us to do more balance activity with all our kids. #LDchat |
| HDubs @holliewood24 A3) I recently ran a PD segment on advocacy at #PETE2019 for #KTIfamily in which I taught them how to develop their advcocacy/narrative in case they found themselves in a position to deliver a 2 minute elevator pitch to an educational decision maker. #ldchat |
| Lisa Nelson @1in5awareness A2 Through my child’s diagnosis of dyslexia, I have found my voice and passionately advocate for dyslexia awareness + providing families with quality resources to information about how to effectively advocate for their child’s needs. #Ldchat |
| Angela Lange @angela_lange25 @UnderstoodOrg A3: also a community of advocates creates amazing changes too! Knowing others who have had similar challenges can empower each other #ldchat |
| Jono 🇺🇦 @Ianatan_Duine Q3 #ldchat I find that parents who have been through the system can be among the strongest advocates. Alliance-building with aware professionals is helpful for coordinating more robust advocating. |
| Elizabeth C. Hamblet @echamblet @LLBruni @KristinMatzKane @DDNJ12 #ldchat Absolutely! Great point! |
| Amanda King Shevette @AmandaOKing A3. I have found many helpful groups, such as Decoding Dyslexia. State & local chapters help create/support advocates. #ldchat |
| Jenn Osen-Foss @UnderstoodJennO @mertensminute This can be difficult, too. A lot of times coaches and extracurricular teachers are students or parents themselves w/ no skill set to work w/ kiddos with differences! You have to speak up and give guidance. #ldchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane RT @1in5awareness: A2 Through my child’s diagnosis of dyslexia, I have found my voice and passionately advocate for dyslexia awareness + providing families with quality resources to information about how to effectively advocate for their child’s needs. #Ldchat |

| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane A3 – We can support other families by listening, we can encourage them by participating with them. If a parent decides to give public comment stand beside them or stand in support. #LDchat |
 | Joan Moore @Iep504jc It's great when they can be part of an advocacy day early on, to show the power of one voice multiplied. #ldchat |

| pbest2 @pbest23 A3 Spread news about events to do with LD& ADHD. The more aware people are of LD and ADHD, the more likely conversations will start. #LDchat |
| Beth Mertens @mertensminute @UnderstoodJennO Absolutely. It makes our advocacy even more important and necessary. #LDchat |
| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG A3. Many people want to advocate but they don’t know “how”. Important to help them realize that advocacy is individual and looks different for everyone. #LDchat |
 | Katherine Maier @KatherineMaier3 #LDchat I'm studying Social Media in #EDET543 w/@dianadell. We're learning about Twitter chat. This is my first time participating w/this chat. |

| Lisa Nelson @1in5awareness And I also helped to make systemic change by helping advocate to pass the first dyslexia law here Massachusetts! https://t.co/WCQfav7lx3 #LDchat #mapoli #bospoli #MAedu #dyslexia #sped |

| Understood @UnderstoodOrg One more question to go… #LDchat |
| HDubs @holliewood24 @UnderstoodOrg I have a blog: https://t.co/hzTEAHLoWq Publishing this helped me to get my friends and family to understand what our family goes through. Once I got their understanding, I felt empowered to take bigger and more powerful steps. #ldchat |
| Jason Dowell Âû @Jgdowell RT @Iep504jc: It's great when they can be part of an advocacy day early on, to show the power of one voice multiplied. #ldchat |
| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG A3. It is not all meetings with elected reps (but it can be) or meetings with school boards (but it can be) and it is not yelling at people (never). Many people have dissonance with what advocacy is vs. what they think it is. #LDchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane A3 – When advocating at an IEP meeting, families can invite someone who knows the child to attend with them. #LDchat |
| Understood @UnderstoodOrg Q4. How can we help students become self-advocates? #LDchat https://t.co/aPcFRkYrLY |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane RT @TMAndrews2006: A3. Encourage positive conversations and strengths based discussions too. Spread hope not just doom #ldchat |

| Jason Dowell Âû @Jgdowell RT @TMAndrews2006: A3. Encourage positive conversations and strengths based discussions too. Spread hope not just doom #ldchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane @KatherineMaier3 @dianadell Welcome! #ldchat |
| Katherine Maier @KatherineMaier3 A1. The best way we can become advocates for our students is to learn more about their individual learning and attention issues; must be personalized according to students. #LDchat |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane A4 - #SelfAdvocates another great topic. Could it’s own #LDchat 😉 |
| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG A4. Ensure students understand their own dx, they already know how their brain works from being inside it, but maybe not why. Help them find (or create) words or pictures to communicate that experience to help others understand. #LDchat |
| Edie Brown @edielovesmath @UnderstoodOrg A3. HS and college students with ADHD and LD should start advocacy focusing on strengths. What are your best classes? Who are your favorite teachers? Collaborate on rubrics. Use technology only if it's a strength. #LDchat |
| Understood @UnderstoodOrg @KristinMatzKane Absolutely! #LDchat |

| HDubs @holliewood24 A4) I work to develop trusting relationships with my S early in the year, so that I can eventually have open conversations with them about their struggles. In those talks, we discuss how there is no shame in their game and encourage them to be leaders for younger kids. #ldchat |

| Katherine Maier @KatherineMaier3 @UnderstoodOrg A4. We cannot help our students become self-advocates without becoming advocates ourselves as educators. Students must have a comprehensive understanding of their diagnosis. #LDchat |
| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG A4. Also, work toward the goal of knowing parent will not always be there to advocate for student (and student will not WANT them to be). If you have a young dx, one day that student may have to meet with a #HigherEd axs team and be able to communicate what they need. #LDchat |

| Audrey Anderson @Audrey_E_Ander RT @KristinMatzKane: A3 – I think parents feel more equipped to advocate when we have resources & support. Groups like #decodingdyslexia #chadd or resources like @understood @parentcenterhub can provide both #LDchat |

| Audrey Anderson @Audrey_E_Ander RT @UnderstoodJennO: @mertensminute This can be difficult, too. A lot of times coaches and extracurricular teachers are students or parents themselves w/ no skill set to work w/ kiddos with differences! You have to speak up and give guidance. #ldchat |

| Audrey Anderson @Audrey_E_Ander RT @Ianatan_Duine: Q3 #ldchat I find that parents who have been through the system can be among the strongest advocates. Alliance-building with aware professionals is helpful for coordinating more robust advocating. |
| Kristin Kane @KristinMatzKane <3 this! thank you!! #ldchat |
| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG A4. Also establish a way for students to discreetly communicate needs w/ teachers. My university had an intro note for instructors that did not divulge dx but noted what acccoms a student needed in the classroom. Just giving it to prof “broke the ice” + started convo. #LDchat |
| Audrey Anderson @Audrey_E_Ander RT @angela_lange25: @UnderstoodOrg A3: @UnderstoodOrg A3: also a community of advocates creates amazing changes too! Knowing others who have had similar challenges can empower each other #ldchat |
| Katherine Maier @KatherineMaier3 @KristinMatzKane As a new teacher, especially, this would be so beneficial. Are the teachers open to this? Are they able to offer differentiation ideas for your children? #LDchat |

| Audrey Anderson @Audrey_E_Ander RT @kerriYWG: As a coach of athletes with autism/down syndrome/ID, it is HUGELY helpful for coaches when parents share info they have about what helps their athlete.

| Understood @UnderstoodOrg Any final thoughts before we wrap up for the week? #LDchat |
| kerri wears a mask 💉🇨🇦💛🇺🇦🦕 @kerriYWG A4 contd. Younger students may need a way to discreetly let teacher know what is/is not working for them, when they need help. Perhaps a visual trigger for teacher to check in that is more subtle than raising hand constantly. #LDchat |
