MARIGOLDTheir plan. Your language.
Your child’s IEP, decoded. Marigold turns a dense special-education document into plain language you can actually use, then connects you to the therapies and programs that fit your child. So you walk into every meeting knowing exactly what’s happening, and what to ask for.
Free, always. Built by Forever Forward, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
You deserve to understand your child’s plan as well as anyone at that table.
An IEP is one of the most important documents in your child’s life, and it’s written in acronyms, legal language, and education jargon. Parents get handed thirty pages and are expected to advocate from them. Too often, they leave the meeting unsure of what was decided, or what their child is owed.
That gap isn’t about how much a parent cares. It’s about access. Marigold closes it.
Walk in knowing. You’ve always had the power.
An assistant that reads the plan with you, not at you.
Upload your child’s plan and Mari explains it the way a trusted friend would: what’s happening, why, who’s responsible, and what you can do next.
