We envision a future where student differences are not seen as problems that need accommodation, but rather inspire the redesign of our education system.
SERVICES
We partner with public and private sector leaders to build policy and investment agendas that purposefully include students with disabilities and improve outcomes for all students and families.
INCLUSIVE STRATEGIES
We work with leaders and organizations to create effective, inclusive approaches to ensure their goals, programs and initiatives embrace students with disabilities.
INNOVATIVE APPROACHES
We use our experience working in next generation policy within states across the nation to help our partners explore new strategies to support family and school efforts to meet the existing and emerging needs of students.
INDIVIDUALIZED SOLUTIONS
Our fundamental belief is that the traditional one-size fits all system of education is not working. Both our clients and the students they serve deserve customized solutions to achieve their goals
Education policy and funding formulas are inherently complex, particularly when it comes to special education. We partner with private and public sector leaders to build policy and investment agendas that purposefully include students with disabilities and improve outcomes for all students and families.
At Think Inclusion, we have the skills and experience to solve problems and achieve results. Our services include supporting our clients in the development and implementation of:
Reform Strategies, Public Policy, Legislative Packages, Agenda and Goal Setting, State Plans and Federal Waivers, Funding Formula Revisions, Performance Benchmarking, Data-driven Reports, Analysis and Issue Papers, Strategic Communications, Public Presentations and Testimony, Stakeholder Engagement, Issue Based Advocacy and Strategy
"Karla Phillips-Krivickas, the founder of Think Inclusion and a state board member, said she overwhelmingly hears from parents who came to the ESA system because they were not able to get the special education services they needed and are grateful to have the option of ESAs.
“We are not talking about what is prompting these parents to leave public schools,” said Phillips-Krivickas, speaking as an advocate."
OUR CLIENTS
Our clients are leaders who wish to improve students’ lives through education policy. These leaders are committed to equity and understand that students with disabilities have been historically disadvantaged. Whether a policymaker, agency head, non-profit leader or grant maker, our clients influence state and federal policy and how public dollars get spent.
We connect our clients to the latest and best approaches on education policy, particularly special education. We help them identify and develop custom and inclusive solutions so they can take steps to make real and lasting change for all students and their families.
