Special Education Attorneys Serving NYC Families




May 6, 2027
Museum of Jewish Heritage, New York City
Presented by Skyer Law's Life Planning & Public Benefits Division, this one-day conference brings families and professionals together to plan for adulthood, independence, and a meaningful life.
Do you find yourself worrying that your child may not be getting the proper support at school? Senior Partner, Greg Cangiano, will host a webinar for parents, alongside Sarah Birnbaum of New York Special Needs Support and neuropsychologists Dr. Laura Tagliareni and Dr. David Salsberg of PALS. Together, they will lay out concrete steps you can take right now, giving you the tools to understand your child’s needs, advocate for them effectively, and set them up for success. This event is recommended for parents of children ages 5-14.
As a parent, you know your child best, and you know when something isn’t right. If your child isn’t meeting developmental milestones or is struggling in school, knowing what to do next can feel overwhelming. Join us to learn more about identifying concerns, understanding your child’s rights, navigating evaluations and special education services, and advocating for appropriate support. This session will offer practical information, helpful resources, and guidance to help families consider possible next steps.
Partners Greg Cangiano and Sonia Mendez Castro join the Parents League of New York for an engaging in-person discussion. Registration and details can be found here.
