The Parents’ Place of Maryland began in 1990 as a grass-roots effort of families, professionals, and community leaders determined to provide resources, support, and information to parents of children with disabilities and special health care needs. Their philosophy of “families helping families” reflects a commitment to supporting families of diverse backgrounds.

Today, the Parents’ Place offers a variety of programs and services that continue to support thousands of Maryland families each year. Staffed primarily by parents who have also faced these challenges, the Parents’ Place believes that experienced parents are a key source of knowledge and support to help other families become effective voices for their own children.

The Parents’ Place helps families:

• Obtain appropriate education, health care, and services for their children with disabilities
• Work to improve education and health care for all children
• Train and inform parents and professionals on a variety of topics
• Connect children with disabilities to community resources that address their needs
