Government Administration - Denver, Colorado, United States
Project IDEA is a boutique consulting firm that provides customized solutions to bring excellence in Special Education to schools, districts, and families.We become part of your organization and culture while also providing excellence and expertise from multiple external partners to address every area of need in Special Education and beyond.There is a dearth of talent and people in Special Education, a national shortage combined with widespread inexperience. With Project IDEA, you get a leadership team of people that have led networks in strategic planning, change management, and people development combined with years of district Special Education administration experience focusing on legal cases and navigating the functions of being the Local Education Agent (LEA).Then, in addition, you get expert practitioners in every domain that have deep expertise in their field to support and deeply understand all of the unique facets of any student. This includes psychologists, former principals, general educators, BCBAs, and other disability-specific experts. This level of expertise ensures that we can support any level of student need and turn stagnating progress across individuals or groups of students into meaningful, demonstrable growth.Together, we have a complete package and the ability to provide customized solutions seamlessly as part of long and short-term strategy. We are also unapologetic in our commitment to ensuring our daily work is antiracist. We see the intersection of racism and disability playing out in schools and a core part of our mission is to disrupt that system through continued learning and examination of our white privilege, bias, and fragility for our white staff and through amplifying the voices of BIPOC staff.Our goal as an organization is to build the capacity of our clients. Each year, our success is indicated by our ability to release certain supports — with the ability to flex, increase, and adapt as needs change.
