Established four decades ago, with the belief that all children can succeed with the right support, the NH Coalition for Citizens with Disabilities dba the Parent Information Center (PIC) provides a wealth of services designed to help parents understand their child’s special needs and the laws that govern the early intervention (called Family Center Early Supports and Services in NH) and special education process.

In 1995, PIC expanded its focus to serve all parents, not just parents of children with disabilities. PIC assists families, and schools and communities to increase family engagement in children’s learning and development.

PIC is a pioneer in creating family/school/community partnerships that help parents of all children get involved in their children’s learning and development. PIC also offers additional support through workshops and resource and referral. From its inception to the present, the Parent Information Center has demonstrated an ability to identify and respond to the changing needs of children and families in NH.

The Parent Information Center and its various grant programs address a variety of key issues in order to help parents support their children’s success in school and in life.
