About Us:

The East Providence Local Advisory Committee for Special Education (EPLAC) is a state mandated group that provides input on special education issues to the school district. Our role is to advise the school district on the development of programs and services to address the unmet needs of East Providence students with disabilities. The group is comprised of parents of school aged students with disabilities, school professionals and community members. By sharing their unique perspective, members are able to help East Providence Schools work more effectively with families and improve outcomes for children.

This September and October we are conducting our Fall membership drive to expand our LAC membership. We meet on the last Wednesday of every month during the school year at the Martin Middle School Library 111 Brown St, East Providence from 6:30pm-8:00pm.

• Attend regular monthly meetings
