Municipality List of Independent Providers of Related Services 
(April 17, 2017) 
 
In cases where the New York, City Department of Education cannot provide Related 
Services for students identified as being in need of these services, the Municipality List 
of Independent Providers of Related Services was developed.  The purpose of this 
Municipality List is to assist parents in locating New York State licensed or certified 
(independent) providers of Related Services who have agreed to provide these services 
under the specific guidelines set forth by the New York, City Department of Education.  
This  Municipality  List  will  be  used  whenever  the  New  York,  City  Department  of 
Education issues a Related Service Authorization, which is described as follows: 
 
Related Service Authorization (RSA) : In cases where the New York, City 
Department  of  Education  are  unable  to  provide  a  Related  Service  by 
school  or  contract  agency  staff,    an  RSA  letter  is  issued  to  the 
parent/guardian, advising them of their right to obtain the Related Service 
from an independent provider of these services at public expense. 
 
The Municipality List of Independent Providers of Related Services provides the names, 
addresses, telephone numbers and bilingual capacities of individuals and agencies who 
have expressed their interest and availability to provide these services, if needed.  All 
individuals listed have submitted copies of their current New York, State license or 
certificate in their respective discipline, which as since been verified by the New York, 
City  Department  of  Education.    In  addition,  all  individuals  listed  as  bilingual  have 
provided satisfactory evidence of their bilingual proficiency.  Current (unless included in 
the Municipality List of DOE Independent Providers of Related Services with certain 
restrictions) and former employees (for one year) of the New York, City Department of 
Education or any other New York, City agency will not be included in the Municipality 
List unless they formally request in writing and receive a waiver from the New York, City 
Conflict of Interest Committee. 
 
Parents/guardians are under no obligation to utilize any individual on this Municipality 
List; this list should not be construed as a recommendation for any particular individual.  
Individuals may be periodically added or deleted as availability changes.
