Internal Mediation and Guidance:
Pathways provides classroom observations,
support and guidance, and internal mediation
when disputes between district and parent cannot
be resolved using other avenues. Mediation
differs from other forms of advocacy in that
Pathways remains impartial to both district and
parents, advocating solely for what is in the
best interests of the child. Presently, Internal
Mediation services are offered mainly within
Montville Township, but training is underway so
this service can soon be offered in other
communities as well.
Topic Meetings and Conferences
Guest speakers are invited to present valuable
information to parents, caregivers and
professionals. Topic meetings are held quarterly
and conferences, annually. Information on these
events can be found in our newsletters and will
be posted on our website.
Sibling Support Group
This program is designed to give siblings of
children with special needs an opportunity to come
together, share experiences, receive support and
make new friends while participating in activities
and games. Visit our Children's Programs page for
the next class in Spring, 2009.
