there are lots and lots of agencies for advocacy, some are better than others, doing a google search for your area is probably the best way to find them...

If a daycare recieves federal funds they and they discriminate you can bring the situtation to the attention of the OCR - Office of Civil Rights, tho i personally dont feel they are very effective.

Schools are not allowed to discriminate with regard to after school activities. The best way to insure compliance is to have this activity included in the childs IEP .... if they (the school district) are unwilling, a complaint to the states dept of education would likely bring compliance.

Most Parents face the total emotional assault of knowing what will provide appropriate education to their child and having to deal with educators/school districts who knowingly and deliberatley wont provide that education...they deal with school districts who are unable to provide appropriate education because of their ineptitude and/or unwillingness to seek consulation that would enable them to provide appropriate education.

every day of every month of every year parents are emotionally distressed by school districts that wont provide a child his birthright....the problem is nationwide, in every school district and until more people stand up and fight them or judicial decisions force compliance it will never end....
