We are pleased to announce our
Cadre of Parent Volunteer training in March 2010!
Our goal is to continue to grow our Cadre of trained parent volunteers that would be available to go to IEP meetings with parents when they have requested support. There is a huge need in the community for this service, and we are eager to train more volunteers! Because there is much information to cover, the training will be in three, 2-hour, evening sessions and participants must complete all the sessions.
