Parents Helping Parents of Wyoming

Parent Information Center is a project of Parents Helping Parents of Wyoming.  PIC is a statewide parent center for families of children with disabilities.  PIC provides information, support and referrals to families on their rights and responsibilities under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).  We help families understand their child’s disability and support them in working as partners with schools and service providers for their children.  PIC staff can attend Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings with families and provide workshops, webinars and trainings on specific disabilities and other disability topics upon request.

PIC offers workshops and trainings to families and educators on IDEA, IEPs, Positive Behavior Interventions, PIC Brochure and other related topics like Prior Written Notice, Transition and Mindfulness.  We also have family friendly brochures on specific disabilities such as Autism, Sensory disorders, Down Syndrome, Attention disorders and more.

We support families thorugh the process of special education services and how to communicate effectively with schools to be partners in their children's education and learning.  We empower families to learn how to work through the system on their own to increase thier children's academic success and acheive greater independence in life. We offer support at Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings and offer individual technical assistance on education, family engagement and related disability issues We believe that working together with educators, service providers and others we can make a positive difference for our children.
