Fort Myer (Joint Base Myer - Henderson Hall)  Exceptional Family Member Program

The Education Directory for Children with Special Needs was developed to support military families who have children (birth through 21) with special educational needs. Military families can consult the directory for information on special-needs issues and listings of national and local resources for early intervention (for infants and toddlers) and special education (for school-age children) services.

The Education Directory for Children with Special Needs is a valuable resource for military families. The directory:

• helps families identify the early intervention agencies and public school districts located near the installation prior to moving

• allows users to make more informed decisions and more easily navigate local early intervention and special education systems

• includes information on a range of disabilities affecting school-age children and on early intervention service providers and resources for infants and toddlers

• provides practical suggestions (Tools for a Smooth Transition) for relocating families
