    Re: Need some info

    Hi! Did a quick search on child advocates - try :

    Virginia child advocates

    There were a few sights out there and here's the best part of advocates: they don't cost AND they're up on the info. for respite, services (speech, ot, pt, behavioral, counceling, sometimes teen clubs, etc.). They really do work hard for you and are totally aware of your rights as well as a child/teens rights when it comes to an education.

    Most are federally or state funded, so there's no cost involved. I would have given you some links, but I have no idea what part of Virginia that you're in!

    Give them a shot, they helped us out!

    Some advocates do charge for their services; some do not.
