Abstract

The population of immigrant children has a large share of the immigrant population in the world. Likewise, children and women predominate in the immigrant population in Turkey and the United States. Access to school and special education services worldwide is a challenge for many children with special needs. Immigrant children with special needs face more challenges because of their doubled disadvantages. However, little is known about immigrant children, especially those in need of special education. Using a literature review, the rights, and barriers to access of immigrant children with special needs in Turkey and the US were discussed. In terms of policy development and implementation, the importance of higher parental acculturation in front of barriers to access to special education services is discussed as a solution as well as suggestions for general solutions.
