Whether it is language therapy for a child with a speech delay or dyslexia remediation for a child struggling to read, an upgraded wheelchair for a physically handicapped child or behavior training for a child with autism, a special school for a student with a learning difference or a comprehensive assessment for ADHD, the JCRS explores and addresses each situation individually, with sensitivity, confidentiality, and respect. If you reside in the Houston, TX area, please contact Melanie Musser, LCSW, at [email protected] or (832) 767-9097.
Our Special Needs clients come from a wide variety of Jewish backgrounds and family situations. Their challenges are physical, cognitive, emotional, behavioral, or developmental. Many have parents who are absent due to death, divorce, deployment or incarceration, or parents who may be struggling to cope with illness, disability, or financial setbacks. Some of them are new immigrants. And some come from dependent, at-risk families who struggle to provide the necessary care and stability to meet their children’s needs. For all children, JCRS funding plans are formulated on the totality of their needs, their opportunities, and their resources.
