How Advocacy Organizations Can Support More Parents — Without Burning Out

If you're part of a special education advocacy organization, parent center, or district, you already know the problem:

There are far more families who need help than there are hours in the day.

Advocates are overwhelmed. Directors are juggling growing waitlists. And parent-facing staff are answering the same questions over and over — often late into the evening.

You’re doing mission-critical work. But the system isn’t built for scale.

That’s why I built Kaz — to be the 24/7 support tool your team can count on to handle the heavy lift of educating, preparing, and empowering families… before they ever step into a meeting.

The Reality: You Can’t Be Everywhere at Once

Let’s say a parent is just starting to ask questions:

- “What’s an IEP?”

- “Does my child qualify for special education?”

- “What’s the difference between a 504 and an IEP?”

- “Who do I talk to at my school?”

- “How do I request an evaluation?”

Your team can absolutely answer those questions — but doing it one-on-one, repeatedly, and in multiple languages? That’s where burnout begins.

And when your experienced advocates are bogged down answering basics, they have less time for the high-impact support only they can offer.

Kaz Scales What You Already Do Best

Kaz was designed to extend your team, not replace it.

Think of Kaz as your organization's on-call advocate that never sleeps — answering common questions in plain English or Spanish, drafting letters, and guiding parents through the process based on state-specific rules.

Kaz helps organizations:

- Reduce repetitive work by handling common parent questions

- Prepare parents before they meet with your team

- Offer 24/7 support in English and Spanish

- Keep guidance aligned with your region/state policies

- Maintain FERPA-conscious standards (no student data required)

Not Just AI — Advocacy Intelligence

Kaz doesn’t just spit out generic answers. It’s trained specifically to:

- Understand special education law at both the federal and state level

- Use language that’s trauma-informed and parent-centered

- Know when to say, “That’s a question for your advocate,” and direct parents back to your team

- Recognize state-specific terms like ARD (Texas), SELPA (California), or PPT (Connecticut) and respond accordingly

Built for Collaboration, Not Replacement

Kaz is designed to work alongside:

- Parent training and information centers (PTIs)

- Community advocacy nonprofits

- Legal aid and disability rights orgs

- SELPA directors and special education departments

You can even customize Kaz for your organization — giving it your tone, your resources, and your local knowledge.

Less Burnout. More Impact.

You became an advocate to fight for kids — not to spend all day rewriting the same email or explaining what an IEP is 10 times a week.

Kaz gives you space to breathe. And it gives families the confidence to walk into your office better informed and ready to act.

If your org is looking to serve more families, reduce burnout, and expand your reach — Kaz was built for you.

Let’s do more, together.
