NICHCY is very pleased to offer you a wealth of information on disabilities! NICHCY stands for the National Dissemination Center for Children with Disabilities. We serve the nation as a central source of information on:
- disabilities in infants, toddlers, children, and youth,
- IDEA, which is the law authorizing special education,
- No Child Left Behind (as it relates to children with disabilities), and
- research-based information on effective educational practices.
Feel free to communicate with us in English or Spanish. We're here, we're listening, and it would be our pleasure to help you. In the meantime, we invite you to explore our Web site and make full use of all that we offer here.
