About us
ABOUT US
Pamela studied family dynamics for many years leading to her studies at Kennesaw State University where she graduated with a degree in Psychology. Her studies focused on life span development and group dynamics. As she was graduating from college, she delivered a child with Down syndrome. Pamela’s entire world changed. Now she needed to use her degree for herself and her family. While the many decisions became exceptionally overwhelming, she began to learn the path in front of her. Charles, Pamela’s son, was born with 3 holes in his heart. Immediately, the entire family was thrust into a whole new world. This new world had many new people. Pamela began to assist these new people by founding and starting “The Cobb Club”, a support group for families with members with Down syndrome. Pamela encouraged other families, provided child care for special and typical children, developed community relationships, and securing educational speakers. These speakers educated families on topics such as financial preparation, legal preparation, Medicaid applications, and assistance with medical issues typically associated with children with Down syndrome.
As Pamela learned to navigate the medical and educational challenges, she began to assist families in completing forms that were necessary to help the children with Special needs. Pamela learned how to find answers to assist families within the disability community. She has spent more than 15 years successfully completing documentation necessary to assist her son with Down syndrome. This experience is exceptionally helpful to families in the same situation and she looks to help families navigate the murky waters of assistance for families with disabilities. Pamela wants to help your family successfully maneuver IEP, 504 documents, and deeming waiver paperwork. Put her experience to work for your family.
