Ocean Clean-up
CLEANING THE OCEAN
The Ocean Cleanup is developing cleanup systems that can clean up the floating plastics caught swirling in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. System 002, our latest system iteration, reached proof of technology on October 20th, 2021, meaning we can now start the cleanup.
WE DEVELOP AND SCALE TECHNOLOGIES TO RID THE OCEANS OF PLASTIC
Every year, millions of tons of plastic enter the oceans, of which the majority spills out from rivers. A portion of this plastic travels to ocean garbage patches, where it gets caught in a vortex of circulating currents alongside plastic from other sources (e.g. offshore fishing activities). If no action is taken, plastic will increasingly impact our ecosystems, health, and economies.
WE AIM TO CLEAN UP 90% OF FLOATING OCEAN PLASTIC POLLUTION
The Ocean Cleanup is a non-profit organization developing and scaling technologies to rid the oceans of plastic. To achieve this objective, we have to work on a combination of closing the sources of plastic pollution and cleaning up what has already accumulated in the ocean and doesn’t go away by itself. This goal means we plan to put ourselves out of business – once we have completed this project, our work is done

A special needs parent herself, she’s been in the trenches since 2010—explaining the process in plain language, and showing parents how to get the support their kids need at school.
She’s the creator of Don’t IEP Alone, a hub of online special education advocacy training courses and tools. You can find her work, free resources, and signature sarcasm at A Day in our Shoes or Don't IEP Alone, and most social networks." ~ Amazon Books
What is Autism?
Autism, or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how a person communicates, interacts socially, and processes information. It’s called a “spectrum” because it varies widely from person to person—some people need a lot of support in daily life, while others may live independently.
Common characteristics include:
Challenges with social communication (like reading body language or understanding tone)
Repetitive behaviors or routines
Deep focus or strong interest in specific topics
Sensory sensitivities (like being very sensitive to sounds, lights, or textures)
Autism is not an illness or something to be “fixed.” It’s a different way of experiencing the world. Many autistic individuals have incredible strengths in areas like memory, creativity, or attention to detail.
Awareness and acceptance are key. Everyone deserves understanding and the space to thrive in their own way 💙

- Adding Behavior De-Escalation Strategies (That Actually Work) to Your Child’s IEP. November 2, 2025I can’t even tell you how many times a parent tells me something like, “Ugh! And the way they respond to him, it just makes him WORSE.” Behavior is by far the most common problem I deal with, as a special education advocate. I’ve read more behavior plans than I can count. And yeah, most...

- Structured Literacy: What It Is, Who Needs It, and Why It’s Still Controversial October 30, 2025Every Thursday during the school year, in the Don’t IEP Alone Academy, I host two live Zoom chats. One for parents and one for advocates. Parents can get the help and guidance they need, and advocates can bounce ideas around and troubleshoot problems (anonymously, of course). In today’s advocate chat, one of the advocates was...
- Orton Gillingham Curriculum: Does It Exist? October 30, 2025“You should try the Orton-Gillingham curriculum.” If your child has dyslexia or struggles with reading, chances are you’ve heard this. Probably from a friend, a tutor, maybe even the school. Or maybe they said your child needs to be “in an Orton-Gillingham program.” Here’s the thing: most people recommending OG don’t really know what it...
- 10 Last Minute Halloween Looks-You got this! October 30, 2025Every year, Halloween sneaks up faster than expected, and suddenly there’s no time for elaborate costumes or store runs.

Rocket Lawyer
A vision for justice. Laws are intended to protect and empower us—but for many, justice is out of reach. Most small businesses and hard-working, everyday people don’t have access to affordable legal services to help them put their affairs in writing or enforce their rights with reliable counsel.
“At Rocket Lawyer, we want to make the digital tools of justice available to more people than ever before. I’m proud to say that since our founding in 2008, nearly 30 million people have created Rocket Lawyer accounts. That equates to over 1 in 9 American adults who can make and sign legal documents, get affordable attorney advice, and incorporate their businesses with confidence. That’s legal made simple.”
