The Nebraska Department of Education, Special Education and ESU 16 are sponsoring a PEP (Parents Encouraging Parents) conference in March in Kearney.

The three-day workshop will be held March 19-21 at Younes Conference Center in Kearney.

The purpose of PEP is to bring parents of children with disabilities together in an accepting and confidential environment, giving them the opportunity to share ideas, feelings and common concerns, and to obtain information on parenting and educating a child with a disability. A major objective of the weekend is to help parents realize that each is doing the best they can do at the time. By the end of the conference, parents will go home with renewed energy, spirit, hope and a desire to work closely with professionals who serve their child.
