What problem would you like to solve?
Lack of services and resources for students with disabilities and lack of trained specialists in schools.
Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?
Not having one centralized location to access multiple services needed; burdens caregivers and parents unnecessarily as they are left having to navigate complex systems without any support. Offering the students more resources to help them students integrate into society. This will also allow for more support for families with children with disabilities.
What idea do you have to address the problem?
The idea is to create more support for families with children with disabilities. Include more access to physical therapists, psychologists, and occupational and speech therapy. More family support, including support services specifically for parents with children who have special needs. These resources and services should be available and embedded in the school the student attends as they are in school every day.
Who would that help?
This will help students and parents who need extra support in their academics. This would also help the school staff, as they would be better able to coordinate and support their students.
What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?
The Bronx
