Through a subcontract, About Special Kids (ASK) provides training and support to the F2F parent liaisons and parent mentors.
Parent Liaisons
Parent Liaisons are parents of children with special needs that reside within the First Step clusters that they serve. They have extensive amounts of resource materials to share in the areas of health insurance, special education law, community resources, trainings, and support organizations.
To find information about First Steps Clusters or to view the Cluster Map and locate your local parent liaison, click on the "First Steps Clusters" link!

Parent Mentors
Parent Mentors are volunteer parents. Parent Liaisons will connect you with a parent mentor for peer support. Our hope is that peer support with another parent who has encountered the same obstacles, and experienced similar milestones, will help you feel less isolated and more confident in the day-to-day journey of raising a child with special needs. If you would like to be matched up with a parent mentor, contact your local Parent Liaison.
For more information on the Parent Liaison/Parent Mentor program, please contact Jane Scott at About Special Kids (ASK).
