Low health literacy rates impacts access to information needed by parents to make informed decisions regarding a child with special needs in the school system. The purpose of this evidence-based website is twofold: to engage in scholarship in incorporating American Occupational Therapy Association’s (AOTA) Centennial Vision and Vision 2025, and Health People 2020 into school-based practice and to disseminate information to stakeholders on occupational therapy services in the school-based setting. The website strives to raise awareness and clarify the role of school-based occupational therapists while also supporting the Centennial Vision and Vision 2025. The website delivers a health literate presentation of effective evidence-based interventions frequently implemented with elementary school students. Providing website technology with embedded universal design features may aid in knowledge translation to the parents and lessen health literacy disparities. Understanding of the information is supported throguh explanations of the evidence, clinical reasoning, or professional models and frames of reference (FOR). Implementation of technology contributes to accessible information, which may empower parents to actively obtain, understand, and utilize the information regularly when advocating for a child’s needs. The website allows for innovated leadership through modeling scholarly actions and strategies. Engaged parents may collaborate with school staff to advance the child’s participation across environments contributing toward overall funtion during student roles, occupations, well-being, and quality of life.
