Special Needs Programs

What problem would you like to solve?

children with special needs traveling to other districts than their own to receive education and enrichment.

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

i feel it is important to solve. So children grow up in their own communities instead of traveling long periods by bus. this way children may engave in community programs to be productive adults. we may also solve the bussing problem as well. parents may be able to drop off the children in school on their own.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

creating more educational programs in the community such as ASD programs, AIMs, Inclusive programs, etc.

Who would that help?

parents, youth/children with special needs

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

Brooklyn, Sunset Park, Borough Park
