Parent Centers provide a variety of services including one- to-one support and assistance, workshops, publications, and web sites.

How We Work with Families Assist parents in understanding their educational rights. Give parents information about the special education process. Help parents and schools work together and develop positive working relationships. Help parents become better advocates for their children.
