Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Parent Consultant?
A Parent Consultant is a trained professional and often a parent of a child with special needs who helps families navigate the special education system. They provide information, guidance, and support to help you understand your child’s rights, participate confidently in meetings, and connect with local resources.
Does it cost anything to talk with a Parent Consultant?
No. All services provided through the Utah Parent Center are completely free of charge for families. Our mission is to support parents, not add another expense or barrier.
What kind of help can I get from my Parent Consultant?
You can get one-on-one help with understanding the special education and IEP process, preparing for IEP or 504 meetings, learning about your child’s rights under IDEA, finding resources and programs in your community, and connecting to trainings or workshops for parents and professionals.
How do I contact my Parent Consultant?
You can reach out by email, phone, or through your district’s Parent Consultant page. Each page includes the consultant’s contact information and links to local events or trainings.
Can professionals or educators contact Parent Consultants too?
Yes. Parent Consultants also work with teachers, administrators, and service providers to build stronger home–school partnerships and share information about special education processes and best practices.
