About this organization
Mission
The mission of Advocates for Justice and Education (AJE) is to educate parents, youth, and the community about the laws governing public education, specifically for children with special needs. We seek to empower youth and parents to be effective advocates and youth to self advocate to ensure that children receive an appropriate education. It is also our mission to make the public aware of the consequences of institutional negligence of children with or without disabilities and to promote school accountability.
About
The Parent Training and Information Center is a comprehensive resource library and training center. The Center offers parents information on the laws of special education, education, specific disabilities, the latest research on treatment and interventions, adaptive technology and more. This resource center is especially critical to our work, as it is accessible to families that traditionally would not have had access to this information. The PTI also provides one-on-one assistance to families of children and youth with special needs, offers advance leadership training for parents and provides a supportive network through peer-to-peer support for families. AJE reached 1,703 parents through individual assistance, support at meetings and trainings and trained 519 pro- fessionals on special education related topics.
