Making New York a Better Place…child by child
Free legal representation for children with special needs.

Assist. Protect. Advocate. That is our mission at the Partnership for Children’s Rights. Founded in 1999, we are a not-for-profit organization dedicated to fighting for the rights of disadvantaged children throughout New York City. Our vision is to create a community in which children in need have access to appropriate educational opportunities; social security disability benefits; and all of the resources and support they so rightfully deserve. Child by child, we strive to make New York City a better place. Learn more…

How we can help.
Services to assist your needs.
The system designed to help disadvantaged children, many who suffer from disabilities, is, ironically, difficult to navigate. Through the work of our attorneys and social services unit, we are able to help these children gain access to the resources they need to become active, productive members of their communities.
If you feel that your child has been unfairly denied the services he or she needs, we may be able to help.
