Parent to Parent is Georgia's Parent Training Information Center (PTI)
PTIs are federally funded programs through the United States Department of Education Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) authorized in Part D of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
PTIs help families work with early intervention, education, and transition systems and services. We want to ensure that families receive training and information on their rights, responsibilities, and protections under IDEA so they can actively participate in planning and decision making that affects their children.
PTIs help youth and young adults with disabilities get high-quality services that increase their capacity to be effective self-advocates.
