ABOUT THE PROJECT
Enhancing Access to Special Education (EASE) is a project focused on developing resources to support students & families to navigate the special education system.
Thank you to all the students, parents, caregivers, community support workers and educators for being involved; and sharing your experiences and expertise in navigating special education processes. Based on the feedback and recommendations, we have developed a comprehensive guide (available below) and continue to develop other resources.
