The PI Team is run by staff who have the lived experience of being a parent to a child in the disability community. They work to increase family involvement through providing training and information, with a focus on increasing advocacy skills in the lives of families. The PI team can help with IEP/504 meetings to support parent participation, and can often answer important questions on how to access adult services upon graduation of high school.

Student Health Services (Dental, Hearing, Infection Control, Primary Healthcare, and Vision)

We provide CPS students with age-appropriate screening, preventive services, and treatment services that are medically necessary to correct or improve any identified conditions, ensuring that we are giving the right care to the right child at the right time in the right setting. We also oversee school-based health centers and mobile care providers.
