Our
Mission
The
C.H.I.L.D. Organization of Scotch Plains Fanwood is a foundation
of supports and resources to families
that have children with special needs and learning
differences.
Our objectives are to
strengthen and advocate for
the rights of those
with challenges and differences.
Commitment to Education & Community
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
High School Transition Program for 8th Graders,
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!
