[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 210723, member: 3493"] Smallworld - I think your comment was directed at me. BOCES is neither a doctor nor a treatment facility. It is an acronym for "Board of Cooperative Educational Services." In NYS, there are several BOCES, which are consortiums of school districts. In my county, there are 30+ districts which participate and I am not in the same county as the other writers. BOCES run a number of different programs for kids who can't be handled in regular schools and by pooling the resources of multiple districts, it is possible to provide a better, broader range of services than any individual district can do. BOCES also pool assets to keep costs down on bus services, fuel and other expenses. The poster's son could not attend the school my son did because she lives in Suffolk and I live in Nassau. I am sorry if you thought that I was recommending a specific program. Honestly, if I had wanted to I would have PM'ed her because the program my son went to is so small that naming it might result in him being identified. Thanks for your concern. Sven [/QUOTE]
