Yes I Can – Better Than Your Average Education Agency

Yes I Can (YIC) wasn't just founded – it was born out of a desire to see every child reach their full potential. Picture this: Ruchi and Simcha Feller, inspired by their experiences, set out on a mission. Ruchi, fueled by her volunteer work at a summer camp for children that are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), pursued a career in special education. Armed with a Master’s degree from Daemen College and training in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), she knew she could make a difference. Simcha, with his knack for executive organization, joined the fray. Together, they Co-founded YIC, each bringing their unique strengths to the table. Today, Ruchi leads as Program Director while Simcha steers the ship as Chief Executive Officer.

YIC isn't your average education agency – it's a lifeline for families struggling to keep their children in mainstream schools. Currently, YIC lends its expertise to over 145 schools across NYC, changing the lives of thousands of students. How? By offering personalized support and specialized techniques, YIC restores parents' faith through expert external consultations.
