SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Second Start Learning Disabilities Programs, Inc. has discovered the secret to successful educational fiscal management while offering an amazingly successful method of special education for autistic children and students with similar challenges!
For nearly 40 years, Second Start has been providing special education services to the students in California and Nevada who have not been successful in traditional public school systems. Accolades for the Newton Learning Center have been so wide spread that the Australia Special Education System for Autistic Students chose to create their program upon the Newton Learning Center model.
Current fiscal issues for public education has motivated Second Start to create a division lead by Greg Zieman, who has over 20 years of very successful, innovative special education experience!
This 39 year old nonprofit is stepping up to help the troubled California Educational System in a way that brings this success directly to public school campuses! This newly created division of Second Start can offer special education classes on the campuses of public education systems within the context of their current contracts to provide extraordinarily cost effective services potentially saving public school districts hundreds of thousands of dollars each quarter!
There can be no ignoring the growing fiscal crisis for the California Public Education System! Second Start Learning Disabilities Programs offers a significant solution to these challenges!
With city, county and state cut backs, in addition to foundation sources being reduced, funds designated to help special needs students are at a premium. This locally grown 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization is a solution to those public education systems in need of financial help.
