Sharing the Commitment Advisory
• By becoming informed, effective supporters for their children’s educational needs, parents of students with disabilities will build positive, collaborative partnerships between home and school.
• Experienced, collaborative parents will create a networking “pool” of informed parents who demonstrate and promote the value of positive communication and partnership skills. This pool will provide support and information services for school sites and for less experienced parents.
