This brochure is presented to help parents begin to locate
needed resources available to their child and to find help
navigating the social services network. Availability of resources
fluctuates with the economy and other factors affecting
funding. It may be important for some parents to seek help as
early as possible for some resources that entail a lengthy
waiting list. This brochure is not intended to be an exhaustive
listing of resources or an endorsement of any one agency.
