The Center for Exceptional Families is creating an easy to follow roadmap to advocacy for parents, professionals, and school staff who would like to learn more about special education and disability. When combined, our staff has decades of both personal and professional experience to offer in developing this series. We are also working with the Arkansas Department of Education to offer CEUs for school staff who are interested in watching presentations, taking trainings, or attending webinars that are included in the Road to Advocacy Series. We hope to roll out an online learning management system for school staff and professionals to track their progress and credits. **More information and links to come soon**
