Advocates for Children of New York

Advocates for Children of New York (AFC) is a New York City nonprofit that helps families navigate the education system and protect the educational rights of children, with a particular focus on students from low-income communities. Families can access free guidance, legal representation, know-your-rights trainings, workshops, and practical resources covering special education, IEPs, school placement, early childhood education, and other school-related challenges. AFC also has resources specifically addressing autism and education. Families can contact AFC’s education helpline to discuss their concerns and request language assistance. AFC offers assistance in English, has Spanish- and Chinese-speaking education specialists, and provides telephone interpretation for other languages. AFC assesses each issue and determines what assistance it can provide, which may range from information for self-advocacy to direct support from an education specialist or attorney.
