Ms. Pepi Silverman

Bridge Educational Advocacy has been founded to support students and their families in the action of working with school districts to ensure appropriate services are delivered. Advocacy is the action of “support” that will make the difference when pursuing services for your children. Parenting is the ultimate experience. As mothers and fathers, their children are the very essence of what a family embodies; they want to trust their school district, but schools don’t know children in the same way that a parent can. As an experienced public school administrator, university professor, teacher and parent of three beautiful daughters, the youngest with a disability, Pepi M. Silverman, Founder and Director of Bridge Educational Advocacy has the unique and comprehensive experience to work with educational systems throughout Illinois. By utilizing sound educational practices, data analysis, and a comprehensive understanding of service delivery, Bridge Educational Advocacy has the abilities to facilitate positive outcomes for the students we represent.
