About Us
We are a team of advocates, educators, and individuals with lived experience who understand the importance of accessible learning.
Our Mission
To empower students with learning differences by providing accessible resources, practical accommodations, and clear communication tools that bridge the gap between students, families, and educators.
Our Story
AccommodateMe! was started in response to the challenges many individuals, including some of our founders, faced while trying to get accommodations. We realized that many neurodivergent (ND) students are unable to display their strengths and knowledge because they are inhibited by socio-economic, communication, and executive function barriers.
Finding an effective solution for this will positively impact the educational experience of ND individuals as it will allow them to successfully self-advocate while increasing self-esteem and de-stigmatizing neurodiversity in educational settings.
What We Provide
- Detailed information about learning conditions and their impacts
- Practical accommodation strategies that work in real classrooms
- Email templates for communicating with educators and administrators
- Resources specifically designed for teachers and support staff
- Accessibility features including dark mode and dyslexia-friendly fonts
