School Services FAQs

1What kinds of school-based services are available for students in NJ with mental health concerns?
New Jersey schools offer many ways to support students' mental health—from day-to-day counseling and prevention programs to trauma-informed staff training, brief clinical intervention, psychiatric services, and specialized placements. Start with your school’s mental health team to explore options and identify the best fit for your child.
2Can my child get accommodations for anxiety, depression, or ADHD?
Yes, in New Jersey, children with anxiety, depression, or ADHD can receive school-based accommodations through a 504 Plan or an Individualized Education Program (IEP), depending on the level of support they need.
3What is the difference between an IEP and a 504?
A 504 Plan provides accommodations—like extended test time, breaks during the day, or preferential seating—to help students manage symptoms and access learning in a general education setting. If the condition significantly impacts a child’s ability to learn and they require specialized instruction, they may qualify for an IEP under categories like “Other Health Impairment” or “Emotional Disturbance.” Parents can request an evaluation to determine eligibility, and schools are required to provide services and supports tailored to the student’s needs.
4What types of testing does The ZPH Group administer?
The ZPH Group offers neuropsychological evaluations, including dyslexia, learning disabilities, ADHD, autism spectrum and gifted and talented evaluations.
