INFO EVENT: Special Needs Schooling (Online)

Educating a child with special needs can feel overwhelming for parents.

We ask questions like:

• How do I know which school is right for my child?
• What questions should I ask about a school's services?
• What should I expect from a school?

To answer these questions, Parent Reality is hosting a discussion:

"A discussion about the difference between public and private schooling for learners with disabilities."
