NISEC, along with the Parent Network, continually seeks out resources that may offer additional information to help support and guide parents of students with special needs. Educational resource links are also provided to aid teachers and other NISEC staff members in their pursuit to provide quality education and related services to exceptional children. Links are changed from time to time as new sites of interest become available.
