PTI Texas

[Guest guest]

I know 's work well and know of her commitment but am concerned

about what the PTI does in Texas I know they all run differently from state to

state. I think though others on the list serve probably would benefit from

knowing what the PTI does in Texas as well so if you could explain here that

would be just fine for me.

Thanks so much I really appreciate it, I see lots of PTI work going on on

listserves across the country. In MA we do parent consultant/advocate training

as well then the trainee's provide a certian amount of free time pro bono

work it is amazing you should check out all the PTI has in MA. You are doing a

great job and thanks for the information.

Thank you for your response. I do not live in Texas although work with many

folks from Texas I founded PFRR which is part of the 1st PTI in the Country.

The Federation for Children with Special Needs this year celebrated 30 years of

parents helping parents. It is a parent run, parent working organization

itself. I am glad to see that Texas is now running statewide it was difficult

to get it all under one unbrella I imagine. I work closely with the Federation

for Families folks in Texas who do wonderful work, the ARC's, and Barbara K from

the Houston area.
