One of the highlights of the summer was joining Christine Howe, founder of Think Time, on her Hyperfocus & High Performance podcast.

We discussed ADHD, executive functioning, educational advocacy, and what children really need to thrive. It was such an authentic conversation, and I'm excited to share it with you below! 👇

Hey there! It’s Nicole with Family ADDventures Advocacy.

I realized that while many of you have been part of our community for a while, there are also quite a few new faces here who may not really know who I am or what we do. So, I thought I’d take a minute to introduce myself!

I’m Nicole Santiago, and I founded Family ADDventures with my husband to help families better understand and navigate their child’s educational journey. Sometimes that means helping with an IEP or 504 Plan. Sometimes it’s executive functioning support. And sometimes it’s simply helping a parent figure out, “Okay…what do we do next?”

At the heart of it all, we believe kids do better when the adults around them understand what they need and work together to help them succeed.

So whether you’ve been following us for years or you just found us, hi! I’m really glad you’re here. 💙

And if there’s something happening with your child at school that you’re trying to figure out, hit the Send Message button and say hello. I’d love to hear from you.

We’re in this together.

We're really proud of this one, y'all!

Check out our free resource for parents called the IEP Strength Map! It takes a closer look at a child’s IEP, identifies strong areas, and spots potential gaps that may need attention as the school year gets underway. Think of it as a quick IEP check-up, because it’s much easier to strengthen a plan before small concerns become big ones.
