Today we welcome Erin Yolac, an educational advocate from sunny California!  Erin and I explore her advocacy journey through the lens of her own educational experiences.  Erin will talk directly to parents, particularly those whose children have been diagnosed with dyslexia and/or ADHD, and will give lots of tips and empathy to them.  We’ll talk about the importance of early intervention and how to ensure that students have access to it!  Enjoy!!!
