Parent Workshops & Publications |
|
|
Throughout the year there are
numerous workshops and conferences that address special education students and their
needs. The Department of Special Services believes that it is important to share
information regarding these workshops and conferences with both parents and service
providers who may benefit from attending. This page will serve to post upcoming
conferences and workshops as the department is made aware of them. |

Recently the Office of Special Services in cooperation with Orange Avenue School initiated
a parent lending library. We are in the process of collecting
materials for this library and will announce specific items added to the library through
this page. |

The
Union County Chapter of CHADD is an organization dedicated to improving the lives of
children and adults affected by Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD).
The chapter coordinator is Pamela Milazzo, of Westfield. The territory of the chapter,
previously known as Western Union County CHADD, has now been expanded in an effort to
re-structure the chapter into a more vital and active force serving the entire community
of Union County.
The group ordinarily meets on the fourth Thursday of the month, from 7:30-9:30 p.m.
(7:00-7:30 sign in), at Children's Specialized Hospital, 150 New Providence Road, in
Mountainside. Meetings include both an educational program and an informal support group
where in members will have time to network with one another.
