About Me

My name is Olivia Riley-Gangi and I chose this social justice topic because of my mom. My mom is a teacher in the Boston Public School system. She was the first person to make me aware of this issue of the abuse and mistreatment of students with intellectual disabilities and behavioral disorders. The stories she told me of her experiences and those of her coworkers inspired me to choose this research this topic and spread awareness about this issue.
