Services for Parents

There is nothing more important than family, and NJCIE is here to support yours! NJCIE is committed to giving parents the tools they need to understand inclusive education practices and work with their children as a partner for their success inside and outside of the classroom. 

Our parent group “is so grateful for your thoughtful and courageous presentation last night to our parents and staff....You have helped us believe in the possibility that perhaps Inclusion is something that can be done in our community on a much bigger scale. We know that we are at the very beginning and last night was our first step.

Parent Consultation and Support

NJCIE no longer provides parent consultation services. We are now referring parents to IncludeNJ (www.includenj.org). IncludeNJ provides consultation and advocacy services to parents who are seeking to have their children included in schools in and out of New Jersey.

Parent Group Trainings

NJCIE provides free training to parents with children who have disabilities.

Trainings range from presentations by self-advocates, effective high school transition planning, basic IEP workshops, positive behavior support, and inclusion practices.
