The data was released by NYS-TEACHS, a project from Advocates for Children, an organization supporting NYC children and groups susceptible to discriminatory policies and actions... [H]omeless students could inadvertently lose out on special education services when families confront a complex evaluation process for assessing the need for special ed coupled with the instability inherent to life in the shelter system. \u201cIt\u2019s easy for children to slip through the cracks and not get timely evaluation,\u201d she says, citing the time-consuming process of getting an Individualized Education Program, or IEP, the legal document that stipulates the services a school must provide for a child in special education. \u201cFor preschool students in general, we do see backlogs and delays at the stage of evaluation and at the stage of IEP development. There are particular challenges for certain populations,\u201d including homeless families. <a href=\"https:\/\/citylimits.org\/2018\/01\/31\/nycs-homeless-pre-k-kids-with-special-needs-face-steep-barriers-to-getting-help\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Read article<\/em><\/a><\/p>","":null,"settings":[]}}],"relationships":{"":null,"article_type":[83],"topics":[8,22],"misc_topics":false},"misc":{"search_results":{"":null,"excerpt":"","featured_image":""}}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
