Yellow Pages for Kids with Disabilities

We built the Michigan Yellow Pages for Kids with Disabilities so people can get reliable information and support.

Your State Yellow Pages has many helpful resources - evaluators, educational consultants, academic tutors, support groups, grassroots organizations, advocates, attorneys and others who help parents get services for their children.

If you provide a service, sign up to be listed on the Yellow Pages for Kids with Disabilities - this is a free service from Wrightslaw.
