The Cape Henlopen School District Special Programs Department hosted its second annual Inclusivity and Access Resource Fair Nov. 20, at the Sussex Consortium, inviting families of students with disabilities to network and learn more about available resources.
About 20 parents or families attended, along with 36 vendors. Food was provided by Grotto Pizza and Matt’s Fish Camp.
One attendee, Robyn Garrett, said her son Hunter, a kindergartener at Sussex Consortium, has improved so much sensory-wise since enrolling.
“It’s an amazing school for him,” Garrett said.
The program comprises about 440 students, around 200 of whom have disabilities. It caters to students from birth to 22 years.
Aside from the fair, the Special Education Family Council holds monthly Family Connection Nights, which provide guidance and training for parents of children with special needs. Sibling workshops and child care are also available.
The council also offers home visits to help students with a variety of issues, including toilet training, following routines, getting ready for school, getting on a bus and any other needs students may have.
