Could you provide more information about the sort of advocacy that you're seeking?

Special education placement?

Help with a disciplinary proceeding?

My son is a 504 student in a Los Angeles public school.  The junior
high he attends does not meet his needs and he is not getting a
adaquate education in public school.  I need a student
advocate/ombudsperson to advocate on his behalf so he can receive a
better education whether it be in private school or home school or a
better public school.  There are professionals who do this for a
living and I am trying to find someone who can help me in this matter.
 Someone who can oversee the entire process from A-Z.  Time is
important he is finishing the 8th grade and will be entering high
school in September.
