Hi, I’m Kia Merrifield special education consultant, homeschool advocate, inclusion strategist, and author. I help schools, parents, and churches create environments where neurodivergent children are not just included, but supported and empowered to thrive.

For over two decades, I worked in public education as a special education teacher, specializing in students with multiple disabilities. I saw firsthand the challenges teams face: miscommunication, paperwork overload, burnout, and systemic breakdown. I also saw the impact it had on families especially those navigating special education for the first time.

Now, through KRM Consulting Group, I bring clarity, collaboration, and compassion to the table offering schools expert IEP writing and facilitation, helping parents homeschool their neurodivergent children with confidence, and equipping churches to create truly inclusive ministries.
