The Westchester Institute for Human Development operates early childhood and school-age FACE centers throughout seven counties, including Sullivan. The centers are part of the New York State Education Department Office of Special Education Educational Partnership network of support, designed to improve outcomes for students with disabilities and better support schools and families. The FACE centers can provide assistance to families of children with disabilities through free trainings and workshops; educational resources in English and Spanish; and direct consultation and referral assistance.
