The workshop will include information on laws relating to special education, preparing for meetings at school and the special education referral process. There will also be time for questions and answers.

Childcare is available upon request with pre-registration. Registration is required. Register online at www.cpacinc.org/workshop-registration or contact CPAC at 1-800-445-2722 or cpac@cpacinc.org.
