TAA NYC
Healthy Brain Network Study - EDUCATE
The Healthy Brain Network has a study which they are actively enrolling right now. Those who qualify get fast-tracked through the waitlist and evaluation. Children who are aged 6–11 and are struggling with reading or math may qualify to be part of the Healthy Brain Network + EDUCATE combined program.
The combined program offers these children the opportunity to have a comprehensive evaluation AND receive 12 weeks of at-home reading and math skill-building computer games — all at no cost.
As usual, it’s easy to refer families to either of the two options — just share the appropriate study flyer with them:
-
Children ages 5–21 who are not experiencing reading or math difficulty: Share the Healthy Brain Network program flyer with the family.
-
Children ages 6–11 who are experiencing reading or math difficulty: Share the Healthy Brain Network + EDUCATE combined program flyer with the family.
-
If you or your colleagues are working with children struggling with math or reading, this could be a tremendous opportunity for them and their families. The games featured in the EDUCATE program help improve math and reading skills when children use them at school. Now the hope is that they also work when children play these skill-building games at home.

He first became involved with the TAA Southern California Chapter in late 2016 and joined the Board of Directors in March 2018.

Is your child struggling to get and stay organized for schoolwork during in-person, virtual, or hybrid learning?
Many students struggle to stay organized, manage their time, and plan activities. These organizational problems can cause schoolwork difficulties and create headaches at home. Switching to virtual schooling can make organizational challenges even harder for some.
If your child is in the 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade and has one main teacher, your child may qualify for a study that includes clinical treatment conducted over video and brain imaging.
Participation Includes:
-
No-cost brief assessment
-
Two brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans
-
No-cost 12-week individualized treatment to improve organizational skills based on an empirically validated program adapted to meet demands of both in-person and virtual schooling
To see if your child might benefit from Organizational Skills Training, please complete a short quiz.

2) ADVOCACY
Tips from Dr. Helene Walisever, PhD (Co-Chair of the NY Hudson Valley Chapter of the Tourette Association of America, and TAA Education Advisory Board Member)
Dr. Walisever provides the following tips:
· Families can contact their child’s school in writing to request Special Education Services that their child may not be currently receiving virtually. If the school is unable to meet the child’s needs, parents may consider writing a “10-day notice letter” of their intent to obtain private education services for their child, if school is unable to meet the child’s needs. Information about this type of letter, and the process for preparing one are available at various sites, including:
a) https://www.parentcenterhub.org/private/
b) https://www.understood.org/en/school-learning/choosing-starting-school/finding-right-school/unilateral-placement-moving-from-public-to-private-school
· If there are any work samples that parents think will document either regression or lack of progress they should save those and set those aside as well. This documentation may help in future, if requesting compensatory or additional services from the district to make up for the lost instruction time, IEP services, etc. Parents can also log the time spent in tutoring their child, particularly for special education services that are typically provided to the child by the school district.
Council of Parent Attorneys and Advocates, Inc. (COPAA)
COPAA has many resources for parents of students with special education needs during this time, including guidance to families on how to proceed when the school district does not continue special education services at this time.
