Dianna’s youngest child was born with numerous special needs. Through years of nurses, hospitals, and therapies, Dianna’s understanding of the hurdles parents of special needs children face, as well as the struggles schools face to meet these hurdles, grew. Now, she takes that knowledge and understanding to help schools handle legal issues surrounding special education, students, and personnel with a focus on what all educators think of first – the child.
