The Special Ed Advocacy Center (SEAC) provides free legal services to low-income parents and caregivers of children with disabilities seeking to obtain appropriate educational services for their children.
Parents and caregivers are often not adequately informed of their rights, and may not be able to read or understand the numerous documents they are asked to review and provide informed consent to.
When disputes arise concerning a special educational issue, parents and caregivers often feel helpless and are without legal assistance.
The SEAC is a non-profit, §501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. We are staffed by lawyers who provide free legal services to parents and caregivers to help them understand and obtain educational services that their children are legally entitled to.
SEAC lawyers realize that every child as individual needs, and work to ensure that parents and caregivers are able to obtain free and appropriate public education in the least restrictive environment and a specialized educational program to meet the unique needs of their special education student.
