I’m looking for some advice, please. My granddaughter was diagnosed as PDD-NOS in 2012 at 12 yo. The psychologist at her school decided the new umbrella designation did not include PDD-NOS and so my granddaughter (and any others) were denied services for their time in school (dropped out, naturally). What legal organization can help us dealing with this discrimination?

I’ll contact them. Who’s to say they have corrected the problem at the high school. Thanks for replying.
@StillEllenDale But I imagine your damages that wild give your case merit will have timed out. If there was a class action or something mayyyyyybe that would give you a tiny chance to make a claim, but claimants get practically nothing from class action lawsuits, so that would really only be to cause them harm (not that I don't support actions for the sole purpose of causing harm).
@ChestRockfield I’ve been known to back , even start, a ruckus to highlight a wrong. Thanks for your input.
