Special Ed major in CT

Sorry - I forgot to mention that the child needs to be between the ages of 6 and 21 years old.

Thanks!

Hi Liz ~ I’m a sped. teacher in Andover, CT. Have you tried contacting the Dept. for Mental Retardation or the Association for Retarded Citizens? Either of those might be able to hook you up with families who are in need. I don’t know how much response you’ll get, since most of the people who post here are involved with LD rather than more severe disabilities. I’m a 4-6 resource room teacher in Andover; if you ever have questions about that or need a place to observe I’d be happy to talk to you! Good luck! Jenn

Dear Liz,

I am a mother of 6 children ages 19-6 of which 3 of my children have been diagnosed with an auditory proccessing problem with no short term memory, one other with a vocabulary deficit disorder and the youngest we is presently receiving informal speech & language and occupational therapy and is in the process of testing. As you can imagine, I can only do so much and your help is what I have been praying and seeking in addition to what I am presently doing, the school, etc.

I am not trying to scare you off, but we could really use the aid. If you are interested, please contact me and I can fill you in with the particulars. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Thank you,
Mary
