Welcome to NYCASE!

NYCASE Mission Statement

The New York Council of Special Education Administrators (NYCASE) is a professional organization that provides leadership and support to members by advocating on the shaping of policies and practices which impact the quality of special education services for students with disabilities. NYCASE will participate actively in the improvement of special education programs in the State of New York. 

Dear Members,

In an effort to support our membership NYCASE continues to post the most recent Federal and State updates to Special Education and Section 504 on our website. We are also continuing to provide a series of virtual update professional development opportunities throughout the year. It is our desire that the NYCASE website be your single point of entry to access updates and resources without having to scroll through an endless sea of e-mails. Now that we have transitioned to our new website, we have migrated some of these content areas to the "Member's Only" section. This will allow us to focus our efforts on the members of our organization and to continue to provide the high quality supports that our membership has come to rely on.      
Thank you to all those that attended the 23rd Summer Conference! Be sure to join us at the Marriott Downtown in Syracuse N.Y for the July 2026 conference!

Dr. Rae Lynn Helman and Dr. Selena Fischer

 Member Spotlight 

We are honored to recognize Dr. Jennifer Harriton-Wilson

Assistant Director of Education Technology at PNW BOCES and NYCASE Member

Dr. Harriton-Wilson's extensive career in education and her many accomplishments demonstrate the fundamental tenets of the New York Council of Administrators of Special Education organization.  We are proud to recognize her and have her as member of NYCASE. This photo of Dr. Harriton-Wilson was taken at the NYCASE July 2025 conference in Albany NY. She shared with us that one of her most recent achievements was to lead over 30 classes from across New York State in attending Soar with Eagle Eye. Eagle Eye is a virtual read along of "Eagle Eye" using a communication board. She also shared that what she loves most about her work is to every student find new pathways to success.
