  • Provide consultation, training, and support to school staff, parents, and caregivers on strategies for promoting students' independence, sensory regulation, and motor skill development across school and home environments.
  • Participate in multidisciplinary team meetings, Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings, and other collaborative forums to contribute to the development of comprehensive educational plans and student support strategies.
