Purpose

Learning Rights provides free legal assistance and education to ensure equitable access to appropriate public education for any student, especially those students with disabilities or learning difficulties, and students involved in or at risk of involvement in the child-welfare and/or juvenile justice systems.

Learning Rights has already served as education advocates for thousands of students and their families in inner city, suburban and rural school districts throughout Southern California.  At diagnostic intake clinics, parents and students meet one-on-one with an LRLC advocate to discuss the student’s education issues.  An attorney advises parents regarding the student’s rights and presents actionable steps, and when appropriate, students and their families are provided with legal representation.

Learning Rights has instituted a variety of programs to address the crisis in the public education system.  Learn more….
