Misyon nou
The members of the Action for Reform in Special Education (ARISE) Coalition have joined together to provide a collective and powerful voice in support of students with disabilities and learning differences in New York City public schools. We seek to improve day-to-day experiences and long-term outcomes for these students and champion systemic reform to:
- Improve services and support for students with disabilities and learning differences;
- Assure meaningful inclusion and integration;
- Promote greater transparency and accountability;
- Mitigate practices that lead to discrimination and disproportionality in rates of referral, suspension, and segregated placements; and
- Increase positive outcomes and options for all students.
