POPIN-Parents Offering Parents Information & Networking
We assist parents with no-cost, up-to-date, and vetted knowledge about the IDEA, the IEP process, the transition from Early Steps to the Voluntary Pre-K Program for Students with Disabilities, transition out of school and into the community, as well as disability-related community and governmental resources. Best of all, we here at FND, are all the parents of children with special needs and give a more rounded view of all the options and resources available to us!
