This week on 'Be Your Own G,' we’re chatting with Melissa Gagne, who's not just a lawyer but also an advocate, wife, mom, and friend. Melissa opens up about her journey, starting with her son Ryan's autism diagnosis, and how it pushed her from teaching into special education law. She talks about why community, collaboration, and knowing your legal rights are crucial for families with special needs. We also dive into how important accessible resources are, the power of advocacy, and how her law firm works together to make a difference. Melissa's story is all about the ups and downs of navigating the world of disabilities and offers some great advice for both parents and professionals.
