Rutgers School of Law Special Education Clinic

The Special Education Clinic, one of the first of its kind in the nation, was created in January 1995 under the direction of former Acting Dean and Director, Eric Neisser. The Clinic provides free legal services to indigent parents of children with disabilities seeking to obtain appropriate educational services for their children, trains law students to handle special education cases, and seeks to educate both parents and school personnel concerning their mutual rights and responsibilities.
