Tuesday’s Child provides IEP support to parents of children in private or public school who need additional special education or 504 behavioral support through their school.  We can help you navigate the IEP process and show you how to be an effective advocate for your child. In our role as Chicago’s child behavior experts, we can provide informed and documented assistance to both parents and the school. We help all parties work together to determine your child’s strengths and challenges, to develop an approved IEP and to track IEP implementation and results.


Alumni Success Story

Williams Family
“His teachers didn’t understand what was going on with Kenny. Tuesday’s Child helped us communicate. He was attending an excellent school, but sometimes even the best schools need assistance. Tuesday’s Child can help no matter which school your child attends. They advocate for the child and the family.”
-Wendy Williams, Read Their Success Story
