According to the Education Act , Section 185: "Every school board shall establish an advisory committee on services for handicapped students and students with social maladjustments or learning disabilities".
http://legisquebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/ShowDoc/cs/I-13.3
The role of this committee is to:
Advise the school board on a policy for the organization of educational services for students with special needs
Advise on the allocation of financial resources for the provision of services intended for these students
While SNAC does not deal with individual issues, parents/guardians of children with special needs are welcome to attend the monthly meetings. We have a public question period at each meeting.
