Our
Commitment to Education & Community
The
C.H.I.L.D. Organization of Scotch Plains Fanwood continues to be
an organization that provides support and resources to families
that have children with special needs and learning
differences. Our objectives are to support and advocate for
the rights of those with challenges and differences.
What
We've Done
Members from our organization
have planned and hosted one of the
most successful Special Educational Conferences in NJ to date - Conference
2005! Working with Resolve, we
brought to fruition a new program, The
8th Grade Transition Program while
providing for increased student participation in our existing Transition
to Middle School Program for 4th Graders.
Equally successful and delightful for the students is our end of
the year Recognition Night that
is always a favorite treat for all!
With over 400 attendees, children and their families enjoy live
entertainment,
activities
while feasting on dozens on entrees
and treats!
