Parent Mentor

The Parent Mentor works to support the relationship between the school and the family of a child with a disability. By working closely with parents and teachers, the Parent Mentor is an important part of the student's educational team.

The Parent Mentor provides one-to-one support to parents, either by telephone or in person. Services provided include:

• Attending IEP or other school meetings with parents.
• Parent training, including training about legal rights.
• Liaison services between parents and school district personnel.
• Networking parents to other parents familiar with specific disabilities. 
• Information and support about special education issues.

The Ohio Department of Education-Division of Special Education funds the Parent Mentor project.
