What we do

Find the right professionals for an evaluation and prepare the paperwork.
Read evaluation reports with you and turn them into requests the school can act on.
Build weekly structure: planning, starting tasks, transitions and checking work.
Practice self-advocacy: asking a teacher for help, explaining accommodations, and speaking up in IEP meetings.
Plan high school courses, college choices and college disability services, and stay with your student through the first semester.

Caveat does not diagnose or provide therapy. We work alongside your student's doctors, therapists and school team. Every autistic student is different, and plans are built around your student's strengths, interests and needs.

Want help with this part? Your Caveat advisor builds a plan around your student, works with the school team, and checks in every week.
