Advocates for Children of New York has a singular vision: an equitable and inclusive school system where all students receive the education they need to maximize their potential as adults.
We fight for families
For more than 50 years, we have fought beside NYC families from under-resourced communities through a unique combination of services, all focused on protecting education rights and eliminating barriers to success so all students can thrive.
"Here is someone who did not achieve any academic success until he received the appropriate services. Adrian is very ambitious and he thrives on keeping busy. He is a perfect example of what children can achieve with proper support."
"Now I feel confident to advocate for Jayce because I know the hard work and stress it takes to make the Department of Education hear you. You guys gave me the strength I needed to keep fighting for Jayce. Thank you again!"
"Hopefully our differently abled students will benefit from this increased awareness, and appropriate and inclusive programs and services will become more widely available."
