In the premiere episode of Rewriting the Narrative, host Ben Tillson is joined by Dr. Danielle Kovach, a seasoned special education teacher and adjunct professor, and Glenna Wright-Gallo, vice president of policy at Everway and former U.S. assistant secretary for special education and rehabilitation services. Together, they share their personal journeys into special education, reflect on the evolving challenges of the profession, and explore critical issues like funding, staffing shortages, and the growing role of technology—including AI—in supporting students. They also emphasize the power of community, collaboration, and policy in shaping a sustainable, more inclusive future for educators and learners alike.

Rewriting the Narrative is produced by Association Briefings.
