SEPACs work to promote the effective implementation of special education policies and programs, as well as to educate parents and caregivers about their rights and responsibilities under federal and state special education laws. SEPACs often provide support and resources for families of children with disabilities or special needs, such as information on local service providers, workshops and training opportunities, and advocacy training. SEPACs play an important role in promoting the education and well-being of children with disabilities or special needs, and provide an essential forum for parents and caregivers to collaborate with educators and school officials.
Overall, the purpose of a SEPAC is to improve the educational experiences and outcomes of children with disabilities or special needs, and to ensure that their voices are heard in the decision-making processes related to their education.
