NYC Expands Preschool Support for Kids with Disabilities | New York City News

Description

New York City is launching groundbreaking preschool programs for kids with autism and developmental delays, offering 250 spots across 24 schools in all five boroughs — the first time such targeted support exists at this level. Backed by a $67.5 million investment, the initiative brings in hundreds of new staff including therapists and social workers to close early learning gaps and reverse years of parental frustration over inaccessible public options. Families no longer need to choose between waitlists or private schools, as programs like Nest, Horizon, AIMS, PATH, and ACES will provide tailored, in-house support — making pre-K truly universal and ensuring every child gets the help they deserve.
