About this program

Parents and advocates of children facing long-term suspension or expulsion from public school, enrollment barriers, and problems getting special education or disability services can seek free support through our FAIR project, including:

Trainings and Resources: Virtual and in-person training, online courses, and written materials to equip advocates for children in school disciplinary hearings (tribunals.)

Community Advocacy Support (CAS): One-on-one coaching for parents and advocates to prepare for the tribunal process.

Direct Legal Representation: Matching children with attorneys for complex cases.

The children referred to the FAIR Project see significant improvements in educational supports and fewer days out of school for discipline challenges.
