HW Special Education Parent Advisory Council
Jennifer Caufield
Have you wondered what SEPAC is? When you have a child with special needs or challenges, you might feel confused and alone. You may not know anyone whose child is having the same problems. And it might feel too difficult to talk about it with friends whose kids are not having any difficulties. The SEPAC community can connect you with other parents who are facing or have faced the same issues. These parent support groups can help you meet other parents with similar struggles. Once you begin talking to others, you’ll feel more supported and less alone. If you would like more information or have any questions: Please contact: bonenfantbecky@gmail.com
