New Jersey Association of Special Education Partner Schools

New Jersey Association of Special Education Partner Schools Since 1974, we’ve promoted excellence, equity, and collaboration across New Jersey.

The New Jersey Association of Special Education Partner Schools (NJASEPS), formerly ASAH, represents private special education schools serving 10,000+ students. With a focus on the special education needs of students with disabilities, ASAH works to foster partnerships between its members, local school districts and local communities. We know that these collaborations not only enhance the quality of education programs, they ensure that students with disabilities are served in the least restrictive setting, and have the greatest chance of returning students to public school settings. While providing information and referral to anyone seeking appropriate placement of individuals with special needs, ASAH also advocates directly for individuals with special needs and their families. ASAH also promotes programs and policies that protect and enhance the well-being of individuals with disabilities and their families, especially those that impact or interface with their education.

Celebrating Direct Support Professionals!

This Direct Support Professional Recognition Week, NJASEPS is proud to recognize the dedicated professionals who support individuals with disabilities every day.

DSPs play an essential role in helping individuals build skills, pursue their goals, navigate daily life, and participate more fully in their schools, workplaces, and communities.

Their work is built on patience, compassion, expertise, and commitment-and the impact they make reaches far beyond any single day.

To all of the DSPs across New Jersey and beyond: thank you for everything you do and for the difference you make every day. πŸ’™

πŸ“£ New NJASEPS Op-Ed

We’re pleased to share a new op-ed from NJASEPS CEO John Mulholland Jr., Esq., highlighting the important role New Jersey’s special education community plays in strengthening our workforce, schools, and communities.

In β€œBuilding New Jersey’s Special Education Workforce Through Innovation, Collaboration, and Connection,” John explores the importance of investing in the professionals who support students with disabilities and the value of collaboration across our field.

The op-ed also highlights the NJASEPS 47th Annual Conference as an example of this work in action- bringing together educators, administrators, related service providers, advocates, families, and community partners to share ideas, build connections, and strengthen our special education community.

What you learn at NJASEPS doesn’t stay at the conference - it goes back to your school.

Our Annual Conference is a chance to learn from fellow educators, share ideas, and bring practical strategies back to your school community.

Last year at our conference, Brooke shared with us how the ideas and insights she has gained from NJASEPS workshops helped her collaborate with colleagues and bring new approaches back to her school.

That’s what Partners in Possibilities is all about.

πŸ“š Every learner deserves the opportunity to become a reader.

This , we’re celebrating the power of literacy-and the educators who find new ways to make reading accessible, meaningful, and successful for every student.

How do we maintain the science of reading while meeting the diverse needs of students with autism and complex learning profiles? This session will explore practical strategies to reduce cognitive load, incorporate visual and communication supports, increase opportunities to respond, and strengthen comprehension.

Because meeting students where they are doesn’t mean lowering expectations-it means finding the right pathways to help them get there.

Join us October 9 in New Brunswick and leave with practical tools you can take right back to your classroom. Register today at njaseps.org!
