ADVOCATE. EDUCATE. EMPOWER.
At Navigating Advocacy for Meaningful Education (N.A.M.E.) LLC, we believe every child deserves the chance to learn, grow, and belong. Our mission is to ensure that every student regardless of background or ability has access to the meaningful education they deserve. We equip Maryland’s nonprofits, educators, and families with the tools to build inclusive, accessible programs that truly work for all learners.
Through our new program, the Maryland Inclusion Project, we provide statewide, ADA and IDEA trainings that helps out-of-school-time and community organizations meet ADA and Section 504 standards, apply Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and foster cultures of belonging. For families, our Family Advocacy Program offers IEP/504 meeting attendance, document analysis, and individualized coaching because meaningful education begins with meaningful support.
Support Starts Here. Advocacy Starts With You.
Designed for general educators, homeschool cohorts, and caregivers, The Advocate Toolkit is a practical, ready-to-use resource filled with graphic organizers, sample IEP goals, accommodations lists, and progress monitoring tools.
Whether you're navigating suspected disabilities, preparing for school meetings, or just trying to make sense of the process. This toolkit empowers you to take action with clarity and confidence.
