5. Special Education Consultations with attorney Joan Proper has new dates opening in September. She offers only 2 appointments each month so it is critical that if you register for a specific date and time that you keep this appointment. Not doing so prevents someone else from gaining much needed advice! Email jrussell@arcgpw.org to make an appointment.
Registration is also available for any of the events listed above (except special education consultations) by going to www.arcgpw.org/events . Hope to “see” you soon!
June 4th is the last scheduled workshop for this year. If you have ideas for workshops and a presenter in mind (free of charge), please reach out! We will be scheduling workshops for next fall in the coming weeks.
