SHINING WITH ADHD #215: ADHD School Advocacy: When You’ve Tried Everything and Nothing Is Working The Childhood Collective 3/18/2026 SUMMARY If you’ve already done the meetings, asked for evaluations, followed the usual steps, and still feel like you’re hitting a wall, this episode is for you. ADHD school advocacy can feel exhausting and emotional when you’re trying so hard to get your child the support they need. As professionals (and moms) who have guided hundreds of families through complex school situations, we’re sharing what we’ve seen work when the typical routes haven’t moved the needle. You don’t have to keep spinning your wheels, and you don’t have to figure out the next steps alone. MEET OUR TEAM We are Lori, Mallory, and Katie. Lori and Mallory are child psychologists, and Katie is a speech language pathologist. Most importantly, we are moms, just like you.
