Family Resource Center on Disabilities

Family Resource Center on Disabilities Family Resource Center on Disabilities provides support, information, and training to parents of children with disabilities and special health care needs.

FRCD was organized in 1969 by parents, professionals, and volunteers who sought to improve services for all children with disabilities. A new Illinois law mandating the education of all children with disabilities by 1969 was the original impetus for their coming together – to inform and activate parents on their newly won rights. New legislation – P.L. 94-142 in 1975; P.L. 99-457 in 1986; P.L. 101

-476 (IDEA) in 1990; P.L.101-336 (ADA) in 1990; and P.L. 105-17, (IDEA Amendments) in 1997; currently, P.L. 108-446 (IDEA Amendments) in 2004; and P.L. 107-110 (the No Child Left Behind Act) – intensified the Center’s efforts to educate and train parents, professionals, and volunteers.
