Services Provided by The Yellin Center
Learning Assessments The Yellin Center’s independent educational evaluation program will pinpoint the specific strengths and challenges affecting a student's learning. By deeply understanding how students learn, we can provide strategies and support to improve academic performance, increase self-confidence and develop success in school and in life. Consultation and Second Opinion A consultation at The Yellin Center can be a good first step for parents or older students who are not certain that an evaluation is necessary but are seeking a new perspective regarding a student's learning. Dr. Yellin also routinely works with families whose children were assessed elsewhere and who are confused about what it all means and what to do next. Ongoing Support Services The Yellin Center can provide support throughout your child's academic career, including progress monitoring, regular re-evaluation, advocacy, guidance, case management and other services. Medication Management / Psychopharmacology Dr. Yellin regularly provides consultations and ongoing management for children, adolescents, and young adults who are considering medication for treatment of attention deficit, anxiety, depression, and other emotional and behavioral concerns. IEEs The Yellin Center will work with parents, school districts, and State Hearing Officers who are in need of an independent educational evaluation to be paid by a student's school district. Advocacy Our Director of Advocacy and Transition Services works with the families of students we assess, providing information and guidance about rights and procedures under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Section 504 (of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973). Where appropriate, Mrs. Yellin can refer families to skilled attorneys in their area. Services for Schools and Organizations The Yellin Center offers customized professional development and training programs for organizations in a variety of fields, including education, business and healthcare. Our unique presentations and workshops incorporate findings from the latest research on learning and neuroscience and will be customized to help meet your organization’s objectives. |
