New Jersey Coalition for Inclusive Education, Inc.
The New Jersey Coalition for Inclusive Education (NJCIE) is a statewide nonprofit organization dedicated to the development of inclusive schools and educational opportunities that enable all children with disabilities to become welcomed, productive adults who may live as independently as possible within their communities. NJCIE is the only statewide organization in New Jersey whose sole focus is inclusion.

Established in 1989 as a grassroots organization of parents and educators, today NJCIE provides a growing array of services and activities to help schools ensure meaningful, successful inclusion in collaboration with families and students.
