Welcome to The Parent Resources Library. This site was developed for parents and others who want information about regulations, rights and procedures in special education.

This website contains a collection of resources commonly requested by parents who have contacted the ConsultLine. General information included in this site does not address all aspects of the subjects presented and does not constitute legal advice. A list of resources to assist parents with child-specific special education concerns is provided in the Procedural Safeguards Notice (PSN).
