The Parents Place of Maryland will be conducting a Parent Advocate Training Program. It is free of charge for participants. It is designed for parents of children with disabilities who are interested in developing their knowledge and experience so that they will be better able to help other parents of children with disabilities who are living in their community. The desired goal is that participants will be better able to (1) offer information about parents rights under special education laws, (2) provide support to parents as they seek to obtain services for their children and (3) attend IEP and other meetings with parents.
