Developing Initiative
Also Supporting Our Community
Community Bridge Advocacy LLC is a professional, fee-based advocacy service. Separately, I am developing a limited pro bono initiative to support a small number of families in our community who may face financial barriers to advocacy.
Pro bono availability is limited and still being established. Please reach out to learn more about eligibility as this initiative grows.
Special Education Advocacy in Las Cruces & Southern New Mexico
At Community Bridge Advocacy LLC, I provide professional, individualized advocacy services for children, adolescents, and adults with autism and other educational support needs. My mission is to help families and individuals understand their educational rights, navigate complex school systems, access appropriate services, and confidently advocate for their needs.
Whether you are preparing for an IEP meeting, seeking assistance with a 504 Plan, navigating an educational evaluation, requesting school accommodations, or planning for college, employment, and adulthood, I provide knowledgeable guidance and personalized support throughout the process.
Advocacy, not clinical care: My services focus on educational advocacy, family empowerment, and connecting individuals with community resources—not medical diagnosis, therapy, or clinical autism treatment.

A Community-Focused Mission
As a parent of two autistic daughters and an experienced advocate, I understand how overwhelming these systems can be. I founded Community Bridge Advocacy to help bridge the gap between families, educational institutions, and community resources so individuals have greater opportunities to succeed.
I believe every individual with autism deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.
Proudly serving Las Cruces and Southern New Mexico.
Also Supporting Our Community
Through the developing Community Advocacy Access Initiative, Community Bridge Advocacy LLC is working to provide limited pro bono educational advocacy services to eligible families who cannot afford private advocacy.
Availability will depend on eligibility, funding, and program capacity. This initiative is separate from my regular professional, paid advocacy services.
