Every child deserves to be included in learning. It's up to us to make it happen.
When children with autism and other neuro-diversities have the tools and resources they need to be successful, learning becomes less frustrating for everyone! At Inclusiveology, we provide coaching and training for parents so you can be empowered for your child's educational success.
My name is DJ Nicholson. Rooted deeply in personal experience, my journey began within the walls of my own family home, where I witnessed firsthand the challenges and triumphs of raising a child with neurodiverse disabilities. This pivotal experience propelled me onto a path of unwavering purpose in supporting children with disabilities, their parents and their teachers. Throughout my 30-year career, I have served as a classroom teacher, an instructional coach and a trainer.
I now serve as the founder of Inclusiveology, leading parents and teachers to grow in the learning possibilities and meaningful inclusion of every child.
Drawing from my intimate understanding of my parents’ struggles throughout my childhood, I gently lead parents through the often daunting landscape of IEP meetings, advocating not with aggression, but with cooperation and collaboration. When we are having conversations about the strengths and challenges of a child, my philosophy is one that is rooted in kindness and empathy.
At the core of who I am lies a profound belief in the power of inclusion. I champion the notion that every child, regardless of their learning differences, deserves to be embraced in their classroom and school community. It is up to us to make that happen. With knowledge of the right tools, strategies, and supports for parents and teachers alike, we’ll light the way for a more inclusive future for all.
