is a multi-service, community-based Special Education, mental

Nancy J. Lavelle, Ph.D., created the Almansor Education Center
located in a church on Almansor Street in Alhambra, California.

of their own learning process, Dr. Lavelle established a unique
environment and individualized curriculum and created appropriate
support and enrichment services designed to turn student and client
learning failures into learning successes. Now over forty years
later, the Institute for the Redesign of Learning offers six
programs designed to provide a continuum of care for individuals
with Special Needs, ages infants through adults, serving children,
