receive services if their children were born between 9/11/96 and 9/11/02
(approximately between the ages of 2 ½ to 8 ½ years) and either currently live
or attend school below Canal Street or did at the time of 9/11. It is open to
families who are doing well and to those who may need support. Those interested
