There are so many different organizations and services floating around DC special education – I hope to list here a reference and direct links to many! This is just the start…
DC Special Education Cooperative
Official: The mission of the DC Special Education Co-operative (“The Co-operative”) is to support DC public charter schools in providing high quality, compliant special education services that meet the diverse and often complex needs of students with disabilities, driving student growth and achievement.
What I love about them: The Co-op is a small staffed organization that carries a BIG punch in DC. Julie Camerata and her team KNOW special education and KNOW charters. They have integrity, knowledge and passion for quality special education.
