At six months, Jacob was a quiet baby. He rarely made any noise at all.
Jacob's mother wasn’t sure what to do…so she called Project Find.
Project Find helped Jacob’s mother learn why he was so quiet, and found
him the help he needed.
What it is
Project Find is a national effort seeking out children and
young adults who aren’t receiving the special educational services they
need.
Project Find is looking for children who have difficulties learning; children who have trouble walking or running;
who are deaf or don’t hear well;
children who are blind or don’t see well; children who don’t talk
clearly; and children
confined to beds or wheelchairs.
Macomb County has more than 19,000 children with special needs. The people
working with Project Find believe the worst thing that can happen to those
youngsters is nothing.
Student Eligibility
Project Find is looking for any person between birth and 26 years old
who is not receiving special educational services and who has not
graduated from high school.
