Amanda Pacheco joined PEAK Parent Center as a Parent Advisor in November 2026. She holds a Master’s degree in Legal Studies and is currently pursuing her Juris Doctorate while continuing to advocate for her family.
As a parent of nine children—three of whom have special needs—Amanda brings both lived experience and professional expertise to her work. For the past 14 years, she has worked as a Behavioral Health CNA and Parent CNA, and she has also served as Operations Lead for vaccine clinics. These roles, combined with years of hands-on advocacy for her own children, have strengthened her ability to support families navigating complex systems.
Amanda is passionate about empowering parents with clear, practical information so they can confidently advocate for their children. When she’s not working or studying, she enjoys reading a good book, savoring a cup of coffee, and taking her amazing children on adventures.
