Below are lists showing advocates who self-certify that they offer Special Education services throughout California at reduced-cost or for free.  The lists are broken down first by the areas in which services are provided and then by the age groups for which they provide services.  For example, the first group shown below includes advocates who provide services throughout California and for all age groups, e.g. "All Age Groups." The next list shows advocates who provide services throughout California and for those children who fall within the category of "Pre-School, Elementary School, and Junior High/High School."  That category is called "Pre-School, Elementary School, and Junior High/High School."  The listings within those lists are sorted alphabetically by last name of the advocate, starting with "a". If the listing is for an organization it is listed by the first letter of the organization's name, starting with "a". 

If a category is not showing, for example, "Junior High/High School," then there are no advocates providing services in that category. In this example, there are no advocates covering all of California providing services for just those children in the Junior High/High School category. Scroll through all the lists or jump directly to the Age Group you want using the Quick Links below.
