Parent Advocacy and Resource Center (PARC)
 

GETAC through the Parent Advocacy and Resource Center (PARC) provides professional development opportunities as well as advocacy and social services for parents and families such as workshops, counseling, and support groups equipping them with at-home strategies to continue educational and therapeutic practices outside of the school environment.

PARC wants to empower parents and caregivers to be the best possible advocates for their children.  In order to do that, we must know our rights and our childrens' rights.
