TBAISD Provides Parent Support Through Advisory Council

Posted: 7 years, 4 months ago

The Traverse Bay Area Intermediate School District Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC) is composed of a group of parents of students with disabilities from Antrim, Benzie, Grand Traverse, Kalkaska, and Leelanau county school districts. Together, this group provides a supportive environment for students, families, and educators to help students achieve their potential. Parents often find their greatest support in other parents who are in a similar situation. SEPAC members work as a resource for others who are unfamiliar with regional services or are looking for information that might support the special needs of their child. SEPAC representatives share their insight to assist other parents with navigatig their journey through special education.

SEPAC meetings are held monthly on the second Saturday of each month from 9:15 am to 11:45 am at the TBAISD Conference Center located at 1101 Red Dr, Traverse City. Everyone is encouraged to attend. Meetings provide an opportunity for parents to learn from one another, gain awareness on pertinent issues, and obtain strategies to build positive relationships with schools and community.
