Short Description
Our mission is to provide and broaden opportunities that enhance the quality of life for children and adults with disabilities and their families, with emphasis on support for underserved families in the community. Nuestra misión es mejorar la calidad de vida para niños y adultos con discapacidades y sus familias, con énfasis en las familias menos favorecidas de la comunidad.
Description

We provide free one-to-one support to parents and professionals by phone and in-person. This includes providing a very limited amount of in-person support for families at school special education related meetings and mediations. When parents ask for in-person support, our ability to attend meetings and mediations is based on the issues involved, staff availability, and grant funds available. We are not able to attend due process hearings or resolution sessions.
