Committee for Special Education (CSE)
The Committee for Special Education (CSE) is a parent-led volunteer organization serving families of children with IEPs, GIEPs, and/or 504 Service Agreements in Lower Merion School District since 1972. CSE helps families advocate for their children to obtain resources and services through training and parent/guardian supports. We work to expand opportunities for children and young adults with special needs. The CSE website provides information about upcoming events and laws/policies that affect families of children with educational, social, emotional, or medical needs.
