Volunteers on SEAC provide advice on special education to the school board Trustees

The Easter Seals Ontario Special Education Advisory Committee (SEAC) Program has parent volunteers providing advice to school boards across the province.  These volunteers can also assist families by sharing information about special education programs and services.

Easter Seals  Ontario SEAC members are parents of children or youth with physical disabilities that provide advice to the school board Trustees and administration. As committee members, they have an opportunity to review special education programs and services and provide advice to the Trustees on the annual Special Education Plan and related special education budget. Members of SEAC can make a difference and improve the quality and effectiveness of special education programs and services.

Easter Seals Ontario has members on the following School Board committees.  If you  would like to be connected with your local SEAC  member, please contact Alison Morse at amorse@easterseals.org.

A little about Alison

As the mother of two girls, one with cerebral palsy, I have been advocating in the school system for almost 25 years. I have a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Geography and never expected to become so involved with the school system and supports for students with disabilities.
