Shaping the future of the OT profession and the community. Oh yes she is, and we are so proud of what she has created at Rise Therapy Services LLC, the Best of Baldwin Winner for Pediatric Therapy for 2026 and a therapy center like no other.❤️ It’s no coincidence!! Thank you University of South Alabama USA Pat Capps Covey College of Allied Health Professions for choosing our amazing leader, Shannon Norris, for your spotlight for OT month, well deserved. She recognized a population, 1 in 5 people nationally, who were under served if served at all, who were not being seen. She saw them and decided the current systems in place and paradigm was not serving them well, and continues to work daily to change it one student at a time. Advocacy, education, integration, intervention, and a national speaker - it’s just in a day’s work. 😊 So proud of our leader and what she means to the dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia population within all her communities, locally and beyond. Go jags🐆 and Happy OT Month.

During Occupational Therapy Month, the Pat Capps Covey College of Allied Health Professions is highlighting alumni, faculty and students who help shape the future of the profession.

For alumna Shannon Norris, occupational therapy’s whole-person approach is what first drew her to the field.

“When a person is suffering, it's pivotal to address the mind, body, and spirit, as they are all connected neurologically, significantly impacting mindset and health outcomes,” Norris said.

Parents have important rights in the Individualized Education Program (IEP) process under the IDEA law. You are an equal member of the team, with the right to join meetings and give your input. You must give permission before any evaluations or services start. If you disagree with your child's evaluation, you can ask for an independent one, review all records, and request meetings or mediation. You can even seek a due process hearing if needed. Knowing your rights helps you support and advocate for the best education for your child.

🤝 Remember, you are a key part of your child's education journey. Understanding these rights can change the conversation and the outcome.

Trying to stay calm can be the hardest thing to do when emotions are involved. Sitting at the IEP table as a parent can be so overwhelming and intimidating, but it does not have to be.. Believe me, I know, I have been there too. You don’t have to do it alone. Having someone present with the knowledge of your rights and IDEA can change the conversation, ask the right questions, and remind the team that the parent is a equal part of the decision making process in an IEP. We are here for you. https://api.alkai.ai/k5u4xd?asrc=fbp
