Mary Beth Moore
Inclusive Education Advocate
Mary Beth developed a gift for storytelling during her tenure as a military intelligence analyst and later as a marketing leader in the high-tech sector. Her journey into advocacy began the moment she learned her son would be born with Down Syndrome and multiple medical complexities. "Unwanted" is Mary Beth's first published work, blending her personal story with the lessons she has learned through her efforts to make the human right to inclusive education a reality for all children with disabilities.
The Advocacy Underground is Mary Beth's vision for making sure that no other parent or educator feels alone in advocating for the rights of students with disabilities. This nonprofit is making complex information on inclusive education easier to understand, working to build toolkits that make specialized instruction more accessible, and supporting communities with the knowledge and skills needed to build a more inclusive world. If you need specific help regarding IEP support, The Advocacy Underground can help.
