What is Special Education?

Special education is a term used by the law (IDEA) to describe specially designed instruction that meets the unique needs of a child who has a disability. These services are provided by the public school system and are free of charge. Services can include instruction in the classroom, at home, in hospitals and institutions.

There are 13 categories of special education as defined by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).  In order to qualify for special education, the IEP team must determine that a child has one of the following:

 

Autism
Blindness
Deafness
Emotional Disturbance
Hearing Impairment
Intellectual Disability
Multiple Disabilities
Orthopedic Impairment
Other Health Impaired
Specific Learning Disability
Speech or Language Impairment
Traumatic Brain Injury
Visual Impairment

Our expertise is in the field of special education and related services, as outlined in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004 (IDEA), and includes:

  • speech-language pathology and hearing services

We represent our clients, our therapists, and staff with the shared philosophy that we are all in this together and we all want to see the children in our country provided with the support they need to succeed.

Why Us?

At Opening Doors Therapy we A.I.M. for success.

It is our Adaptability, Integrity, and Motivation that set us apart from other therapy staffing agencies.

In an unpredictable world, therapists and administrators can count on the adaptability of ODT to swiftly provide peace of mind and positive results in the face of challenging circumstances.

We have decades of combined experience with public, private, and charter school administrative procedures, as well as those of Early Intervention programs and Intermediate Units and we will work by your side to make the implementation process virtually seamless.

At Opening Doors Therapy, we believe in a doing business with integrity.

There comes a time in one's career where an individual must decide to abide by the status quo or take action in order to create meaningful change.

Our vision of providing excellent service without the constraints of disengaged decision making was a call to action. Opening Doors Therapy is the alternative to the status quo.

As a newly founded firm, we are motivated to prove our ability and dedication to our therapists, our clients, our staff, and ourselves.

Our experiences have taught us that the best partnerships are built on and sustained by honesty, hard work, and heartfelt care.

These beliefs are what motivate us to do our very best and encourage others to believe in themselves and strive for greatness.

At Opening Doors Therapy, we believe in a better way of doing business.
