National Center for Learning Disabilities Launches Online Resource for Parents
Developing an online national resource center for parents of children with learning disabilities
The National Center for Learning Disabilities (NCLD) launched the Parent Center, a new section of its Web site.
Key Results
The Parent Center section of the Web site is designed to:
- Provide parents with information and resources to determine if their child has a learning disability.
- Provide parents with information for obtaining special education and other services through their local school district.
- Help parents better understand their children's learning disabilities so they can support their children's needs.
Funding
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) provided a grant of $50,000, which was combined with $50,000 from NCLD funds, to create the Parent Center.
