special education - remote (essex county)
SC has been diagnosed with several medical conditions since birth, including sickle cell disease, and while evaluations indicate the need for special education, his IEP was terminated. Now 18, SC remains in school because he is academically behind. SC’s mother, ST, is a single parent in Newark who has been struggling to advocate for her son in the Newark school district for years. ST needs assistance appealing his IEP denial and help determining his rights to transition planning.
