Military service members and their families are resilient and resourceful, many also face unique challenges and have special considerations related to the service of their country. When military families have a student with a disability, it adds another layer of complexity to accessing information and supports, while ensuring their students receive a free, appropriate public education.

PEATC, in collaboration with the Virginia Department of Education, invites military service members and their families who have students with disabilities, as well as the educators and other support professionals who serve them, to join us for an IN-PERSON conference designed with their interests in mind!

There will be an exhibitor’s hall and meet and greet on Sunday, May 8, 2022 from 6- 8 pm, giving attendees an opportunity to network with each other, the presenters, the keynote speaker and gather important resources.

Monday, May 9, 2022 will be a day filled with a host of information and presentations from professionals with experience and a passion for Special Education and the military family. This year’s conference will include topics on special education, PCSing (Permanent Change of Station) with an IEP, transition services, and more.
