Parent Training and Information Projects

The Partners Resource Network (PRN) is the nonprofit agency awarded four parent training and information (PTI) projects which now cover the entire state of Texas. These projects operate independently but do share some central administrative functions. All of the projects share the common purpose of empowering parents of children and youth with disabilities in their roles as parents, decision makers, and advocates for their children.

We offer:

  • Individual assistance over the phone and in-person to families who have questions about their child's needs
  • Workshops for parents and professionals that take place on an ongoing basis throughout Texas
  • Resources such as printed publications and online materials which are available on a variety of relevant topics

The project also provides training and information that will help youth in transition to access education, employment, and independent living. Our goal is to empower and support youth with disabilities in their roles as decision-makers and self-advocates.
