3 A DIRECTORY OF SCHOOLS AND AGENCIES

WITH SERVICES FOR RETARDED CHILDREN

IN THE BOSTON AREA

This directory is for parents and for teachers. It has been compiled in such a way as to make it as easy as possible to find the precise educational and recreational services to fit each individual child. An effort has been made to avoid educational jargon so that descriptions and summaries can be easily understood by parents as well as by professional personnel.

The first section gives an alphabetical listing of schools and agencies.

A chart accompanying the listing makes it possible to spot check the services offered in each instance. In addition to the broad categories listed on the chart, the directory includes specific services for deaf-retarded, blind-retarded, physically handicapped-retarded and emotionally disturbed-retarded.

The second section, also alphabetically arranged, gives complete information on each school or agency:

Name and address Director or Person to call for information Client information Services offered Summary

The directory has been compiled by personnel at NEMIC (New England Materials for Instruction Center) under the direction of Mrs. Janice Webster, Boston

School Department Special Education Teacher. Through a cooperative project between NEMIC and the Boston School Department, Mrs. Webster has participated

In this and similar projects of value to the school system and to special education in New England.

For their interest in and encouragement of the project, gratitude isex- tended to Dr.Harold Ruvin, Director of NEMIC and to Dr. Vincent P. Conners, Di- rector of Special Classes, City of Boston. Acknowledgement is also made to

41 the Handbook of Facilities for Emotionally Disturbed and Socially Maladjusted

Children and Adolescents in Massachusetts and Adjacent Areas, the State Depart- ment publication Directory ofResources for the Retarded in Massachusetts, and the United Community Services Directory of Social, Health, Welfare and Re- habilitation Services in Massachusetts.

If any omission is noted we would appreciate being informed so that inclu- sion will be assured in another edition.
