S.E.L.F. provides resources, knowledge, and support to parents, guardians, and self-advocates to facilitate the successful navigation of the special education process. Since 2018, S.E.L.F. has provided over $1.2 million in direct support grants to hundreds of families requiring special education legal or advocacy support. In addition, S.E.L.F. has supported thousands of families through the Parent Education Program, which provides free informational resources to families on special education topics.

SEEK is a nonprofit made up of parents, special education advocates, and attorneys. Its mission is to secure an excellent education as a basic civil and human right for students with disabilities in Connecticut. Promoting greater equity is central to SEEK’s mission, and to that end, this year SEEK is working closely with lawmakers to address issues pertaining to school funding and to enact additional protections for our most vulnerable students.
