In 13 years as a special education lawyer, I have worked alongside a lot of intervention teams. Patty and the team at EKZ Resources are among the most effective I have ever seen.
The work speaks for itself. When a young child is struggling in an early-childhood classroom, EKZ's Rapid Response Team gets a therapist in the door within 1–2 weeks — not the months long wait that has become standard elsewhere in our region. They coach the teacher, support the family, and keep the child in care while the rest of the system catches up. The results they deliver are unmatched.
This is the moment where a child's entire school experience gets set on a trajectory — for better or for worse. Funding EKZ makes a meaningful difference in a young child's life at exactly the point it matters most.
If you'd like to support their work and enjoy a great day of golf, consider joining me at the EKZ Resources 1st Annual Golf Outing — Saturday, September 19, 2026 at Meadowink Golf Club in Murrysville. $175 per player includes 18 holes, cart, beverages, snacks at the turn, and lunch. Sponsorships also available for local businesses that want to get behind this work.
