Extractions: Gifted / Learning Disabled Students Gifted children with learning disabilities are students who possess an outstanding gift or talent but have a significant weakness in a specific area that makes academic achievement difficult. These students, who have special needs that result from their being twice exceptional, are often misunderstood and inappropriately served.

The DCCs co-directors, Dr. Carol Mills and Dr. Linda Brody , are experts in the field of gifted children with learning disabilities.

Extractions: "Research in the United States and other countries shows statistically that children with disabilities are more than twice as likely as other children to experience abuse and neglect. It is a myth that disability protects. Our attitudes and beliefs, how services are provided, and our lack of confidence in communicating directly with children with special needs contributes to their vulnerability," he continued.

Extractions: Children deemed to have special educational needs may be most obviously those with a condition that hinders or prevents them from making use of the facilities provided for pupils of their age. But in the broadest sense it covers all those whom the school considers could benefit from extra help with their studies. The great majority are educated in mainstream primary and secondary schools, which are required to publish their policies on pupils with special needs. A government code of practice offers practical guidance to all local education authorities and state schools in England on how to identify, assess and monitor these pupils. Statements An estimated one in five children has some form of special educational need, ranging from mild dyslexia to behavioural problems to complex medical conditions. In most cases this is dealt with in schools through an individual action plan. But some need more support than their school can provide.

CDCH Dawn has always been the severely disabled child her quest to provide for these specialchildren is Development for the United Nations international School and http://www.cdch.org/charterstaff.html
Extractions: Dawn began her fight for children with special needs when her son Jon was diagnosed with autism at age 3. Soon afterwards, she felt the need and drive to become an advocate for other families that had children with special needs. She served as a parent representative and assisted families to negotiate the CPSE/CSE system and access community resources. Dawn's awareness of the lack of child development services available on the East End of Long Island is what led her to found the Child Development Center of the Hamptons Preschool in 1997 and the CDCH Charter School in January, 2001. Both schools boast an integrated program of disabled and non-disabled children learning side by side. The creation and opening of these schools has been a grass-root project that began in a basement. Dawn started this endeavor by gathering a small group of children, like her own son Jon, so that they too could play together and learn to make friends just like their non-disabled peers. This unique program called Jump Start, not only addressed the needs of the children, but their parents as well. It gave these mothers and fathers the opportunity to meet on a regular basis and offer desperately needed support and advice to each other.
