Kennedy Krieger Institute’s Department of Special Education includes a number of programs that offer services to children with disabilities in a variety of settings. Kennedy Krieger School programs offer special education and related services to students aged 3-21 in three-day school settings and in partnership settings within public schools.

The array of disorders served includes: autism, learning disabilities, speech/language disorders, orthopedic disabilities, traumatic brain injury, and intellectual disabilities. Students with multiple disabilities are also included in this group.
