8 virtual advocates who work with New Hampshire schools
An advocate reads the evaluation reports, drafts your concerns into one page, sits beside you while the team goes through the plan, and follows up in writing on whatever the school agreed to do.
Parents in New Hampshire usually start looking the week an evaluation report lands and they cannot tell from it whether the school is offering enough.
An advocate who works New Hampshire cases reads the current plan against the evaluation, pulls the progress data to see whether the goals moved, and puts your written concerns in front of the team before anyone sits down.
An advocate in Manchester and one three hours away work from the same rulebook, so send the file before you book the call.
These advocates are not based in New Hampshire. They join IEP meetings by video or phone, which IDEA allows when you and the school agree.

Special Education Advocate
Kate Keenan is a special education advocate serving families in Midland, TX.
New Hampshire sets the rules and the district applies them. That split is why a complaint about a missed service names the district.
Advocate pages exist here for 10 cities, and the evaluation clock described on each one is identical.
The deadline for finishing an initial evaluation in New Hampshire is 60 days. Put that date on the calendar the day the paperwork goes in.
Write what you want the school to add on one page and send it in advance, because a team that has read your list cannot pretend it never came up.
New Hampshire takes paper only. Mail or hand deliver the signed complaint to the Special Education Complaint Office, New Hampshire Department of Education, 25 Hall Street, Concord, NH 03301. Email is not accepted. A complaint sent electronically is not considered received and starts no investigation.
Decision timeline
The department investigates and issues a decision within 60 calendar days of receiving the written complaint. Because an electronic submission does not count as received, the clock does not start until the signed paper copy arrives at the complaint office, not the day you send it.
The New Hampshire Department of Education oversees special education in New Hampshire. It does not license the advocates parents hire.
Check the references and not the letters after the name. Two calls to past clients settle it faster than any credential list.
Advocates do not decide complaints. The New Hampshire Department of Education does, and only after somebody files one in writing.
You sign, not the advocate. Consent and the plan itself both need a parent signature.
Being listed for New Hampshire is not the same as taking every case here, so read the service area on each profile before you write to anyone.
Somebody who takes Manchester cases usually takes cases in the towns around it, so say where you are in the first email.
Meeting by video is a scheduling choice and the school has to agree to it. Ask in writing before the date is set.
Some districts still prefer everybody in the room. Confirm the format in writing so nobody arrives to an empty table.

Answers about hiring a special education advocate in New Hampshire, including cost, timing, virtual support, and Section 504 help.
What do special education advocates charge in New Hampshire?
Rates run $75 to $250 per hour. What moves the number is experience, the type of case, and whether anyone has to drive to the meeting. Profiles here show the rate when the advocate publishes one.
Can we work with an advocate who lives outside New Hampshire?
Video is normal now. A remote advocate reads the file, drafts your concerns and joins the meeting by phone. What a remote advocate cannot do is walk the building or read the room.
What is the evaluation deadline in New Hampshire?
The deadline in New Hampshire for finishing an initial evaluation is 60 days. Put that date on your calendar the day you sign consent, because the district counts from the paperwork and not from the conversation.
How do I know where an advocate actually works from?
Every card on this page names the city the advocate works from. Advocates listed under the virtual heading live somewhere else and work with families here by video or phone.
What is the difference between an IEP and a 504 plan?
An IEP provides specialized instruction and related services under IDEA. A 504 plan provides accommodations under a civil rights law and does not require specialized instruction. Eligibility rules differ, so a child can qualify for one and not the other.
Where does a written special education complaint go?
Three routes stay open when you disagree. Mediation is voluntary for both sides, a written state complaint is decided on the record by the New Hampshire Department of Education, and a due process hearing takes evidence.
These links connect you to your state education agency and complaint options. Advocates on this page can also explain what each step means for your child.
