West Bridgewater's Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC) is a 501(c)3. We offer monthly workshops to help families navigate special education.

Note: The posts here are not necessarily endorsed by the West Bridgewater Public Schools or West Bridgewater's SEPAC. West Bridgewater's SEPAC supports families with children with special needs, including children with IEPs and 504 Plans. Inclusion is belonging and we partner with families in their efforts to find places where their children can belong--in schools and beyond. We host events and gatherings to foster belonging for families with special needs and amplify the history, experiences, and voices of disabled self-advocates. WB's SEPAC knows that including people with disabilities in the life of the school and the community is everyone's responsibility and privilege. We seek to invite and train non-disabled families and community members in supporting and including people with special needs. While we serve as the SEPAC of West Bridgewater, MA, we provide support to SEPACs, communities, and individuals from all over the Commonwealth and beyond. Contact Us

WinPAC is pleased to host Laurel Black, Ed.M., ACC, Director of Executive Function Coaching at Research Institute for Learning and Development, who will be speaking on "From Chaos to Calm: an Executive Functioning Webinar."

From Knowing Better to Doing Better: Executive Function at Home
Monday, Nov. 10 from 7-8:30 pm on Zoom

In this one-hour live virtual session, Laurel Black Ed.M., ACC will share techniques and language to support executive function in neurodivergent kids. The training will equip parents to “get curious” about their child’s behavior patterns, have validating conversations to build self-awareness, and collaborate on solutions to try. Informed by principles from coaching psychology, motivational interviewing, and the ThinkKids Collaborative Problem Solving program, parents will leave with a clear path to help kids understand themselves, be flexible, and adjust or advocate as needed.

Register for this event on the WinPAC website (winchesterpac dot org).
