A Better Way

Special needs students and adults should be able to access appropriate, effective and impactful education, training, and support.
 

Sometimes it’s hard for parents or guardians like you to understand the entitlements and regulations, and to cut their way through the red tape to access appropriate services.
 

It is Bruce’s belief that all providers try their best to provide appropriate and effective services for students and adults however providing quality programs for people with special needs is a daunting task for any school or agency, public or private.
 

It doesn’t have to be that way.
 

With Bruce Litinger as your advocate and mentor, you’ll have the support, guidance, and experience you need to succeed.
