Parent Resource Center (PRC)

Welcome to the Arlington Public Schools Special Education Parent Resource Center (PRC). The PRC is a resource and information center for families, staff and community members. The PRC’s mission is to provide parents the support and information they need as they work with the school system to identify and meet their child’s unique learning needs.

The PRC offers:

• Information and referrals
• Parent learning opportunities and events
• A Family Resource and Information Guide designed to provide step by step support in navigating the special education process, collaborating with school staff, and accessing community resources
• Individual consultation with families – schedule a consultation now online, or call us at 703.228.7239 to schedule an appointment.
• A lending library containing books, DVDs and audiobooks.
• A monthly email news and updates. Subscribe at: https://bit.ly/PRCMessagesSignUp

Our programs and activities are designed to provide support to families. While we have a great deal of materials geared toward families of children with special needs, we have many resources for families seeking information on general parenting topics as well.  Drop in and see us.
