About SEPTA

Our SEPTA is made up of hard-working parents, teachers and volunteers who pool their talents to provide practical support for our community. Those listed below volunteered to provide leadership this year. Get to know their names and faces, and feel free to ask them if you have any questions. 

Special needs caregiving requires special support and a special network.  Stay up to date and lean on our network of incredible families.  Be sure to become a member through the link below.
