What can you do Nationally?

Funding for special education programs gets increasingly harder every year. On a national level, we are able to help out the rest of Nation.

Again, Easter Seals Hawaii's provides extraordinary services. Please find them in your neighborhood.

You can also donate to non-profit organizations in your state.

Also, becoming a special education teacher is important in our society. Because there is an increase of disabled children every year, we need more and more teachers that are willing to work. Teaching is a self-rewarding profession; we need more teachers in this field. There are two websites that are looking for teachers who would like to teach children with disabilities. Please visit these websites below, if you are interested.

If you would like to help, but do not want to become totally committed, or devote your life to special education, there are places where you can volunteer. Find a place near you!

It takes a special person to pursue a career in special education. I really admire people who are willing to give so much patience and time to education special needs students. I got frustrated just trying to teach 1st graders at my community service, I can't even imagine how difficult it must be to teach special needs students year after year. Mahalo's to Hawaii's special needs teachers! Cheeeeheeeee!
