There's one reason we're all here...

AT BRIGHTON,
WE’RE HERE FOR THE KIDS.

A Resource for All Families!

We know parents have many questions and concerns about special education. There are new words to learn and laws to consider. Parents want to make sure they are getting the right help for their children and making the best decisions.

Brighton's Special Education Support Services team helps parents of children ages 3-8 with 1-on-1 counseling to understand and access special education and support services for their child within the public school system. We review evaluations, individual education plans (IEP), and attend ARD meetings with the your child's school.
