The Dean-Hope Center
for Educational and Psychological Services is a diverse training and research facility,
offering a wide range of educational and psychological services to children,
adolescents, adults and families in the greater New York area. The primary mission of the Center is to
provide students enrolled in specific professional, masters and doctoral degree
programs with the opportunity to apply what they are learning in the classroom
to practical work with clients in a clinical setting. As such, the Center is an integral part of
the teaching and training of graduate students in the School Psychology,
Reading Specialist, and Clinical and Counseling Psychology programs at Teachers
College. Reading Specialist students
gain critical clinical experience and learn professional and ethical standards
for conducting reading assessment and intervention to children, adolescents and
adults who struggle with literacy. Members
of the faculty closely supervise the provision of these services. In addition to providing invaluable training
to Reading Specialist graduate students, the Center is able to offer affordable
services that meet high professional standards to a wide variety of people in
the community, and has liaisons with schools, agencies, hospitals and mental
health clinics to support progress and development.
