The Northborough Southborough Special Education Parent Advisory Council (NSPAC) is hosting a virtual Autism Parent Training Workshop, presented by Massachusetts Advocates for Children, on Tuesday, October 18, 6:30-8 p.m. The workshop will provide an overview of specific special education requirements addressing the unique needs of students with autism. The workshop will address current trends, legal standards, evaluation rights and the range of compensatory services still available to address students’ needs. There will be an emphasis on law and strategies to help ensure children with autism receive the full range of instruction and services necessary to meet their unique needs, and to provide educational opportunities reflecting potential in inclusive settings. All are welcome.
NSPAC is a volunteer-run, positive and solution oriented organization of parents of students ages 3-22 with special needs, medical challenges, and learning differences in the Northborough and Southborough School Districts.
Meetings, speakers, and events of interest can be found on the website at www.nspac.org or follow Facebook.
