My Learning Springboard offers a variety of services to support students with learning differences, physical disabilities, and emotional issues. Our experts include special educators and advocates, autism specialists, reading specialists, math specialists, classroom teachers, psychologists, behavioral pediatricians, speech and language therapists, play therapists, occupational therapists, movement therapists, and holistic health counselors. Our Special Education Family Advocates help to navigate resources, coach parents, and facilitate Early Intervention, IEP and 504 processes. This consultation includes navigating the NYC Department of Education’s Committees on Special Education (CSE), working with child study teams at schools, and supporting parents with school selection.
