PLACE supports school divisions facing increased demands by providing high-quality evaluation services, professional development, and IEP audits that strengthen systems and reduce workload. We serve students from preschool through high school and work collaboratively with staff to keep the IEP process moving smoothly while maintaining compliance. By allowing PLACE to manage assessment needs, your educators can stay focused on what they do best—delivering excellent instruction and building strong relationships with students. Our goal is to act as an extension of your team, offering reliable, consistent support that enhances capacity across your entire division.
You’ve watched your child work hard and felt discouraged when their progress didn’t match their effort. Maybe you can’t quite pinpoint why they’re struggling, or you’ve tried interventions without seeing the growth you know they’re capable of. Because you understand your child’s potential and want clear guidance to support their success, you’ve begun searching for answers beyond the classroom. If you’re feeling frustrated or stuck, you are not alone. It’s time to connect with PLACE. We specialize in getting to the root of your child’s learning challenges, and through individualized assessments, we provide a clear path forward with actionable next steps—so your child has the best chance to reach their full potential.
PLACE is uniquely positioned because our staff have combined experience as both special education parents and seasoned educational professionals.

We offer guidance that connects assessment results to meaningful implementation in educational settings.
PLACE ensures a seamless process from testing to practical support, improving outcomes for students and the teams who serve them.
PLACE was created in response to the rapidly shifting landscape of education. Teacher shortages, reduced access to specialized training, and fewer experienced educators have left many school division teams stretched thin. This often means students aren’t receiving the depth of assessment or individualized support they truly need.
We built PLACE to serve as a collaborative bridge between families and schools, offering the time, expertise, and clarity that traditional systems sometimes struggle to provide. Our goal is to ensure every child receives a high-quality, comprehensive assessment that leads to real understanding and real progress.
As parents of children with special needs ourselves, we know firsthand how frustrating it can feel to leave school meetings or medical appointments discouraged or without clear answers. These experiences shaped our commitment: to offer honest conversations, compassionate support, and assessments grounded in both professional expertise and lived experience.
At PLACE, we approach every child as if they were our own.
Let’s create a pathway to success—together.
Whether you’re a family or a school division, we’re here to provide the expertise and support you need.
