Sliding Scale Support
At IEP Clarity Co., I believe families should have access to clear, supportive IEP guidance regardless of financial circumstances.
A limited number of reduced-rate sessions are available each month for families experiencing financial hardship. Sliding scale spots are based on availability and are intended to help make support more accessible while keeping services sustainable.
If you are interested in a reduced-rate session, please complete the intake form and note that you would like to be considered for sliding scale support.

Meet the Founder
Hi, I’m Kim Dernbach, founder of IEP Clarity Co.
I’ve worked with children on the autism spectrum and students with special needs for over 15 years. My background includes working as a paraprofessional in a moderate/severe classroom, teaching middle school RSP, and most recently teaching TK–8th grade moderate/severe special education for the past two years.
I’ve written IEPs, collected and analyzed data, held annual, triennial, and emergency IEP meetings, supported families, and gained firsthand experience navigating advocacy and compliance concerns.
Over time, I realized many parents are expected to make major decisions without fully understanding the process or the language being used.
I created IEP Clarity Co. to help parents feel more informed, confident, and prepared when navigating their child’s IEP.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, MAT in Extensive Needs Support Special Education, and I currently work as an Assistant Clinical Supervisor for a crisis stabilization and advocacy-focused company.
