Urban PRIDE

In Boston (MA, US), an organization called “Urban PRIDE” provides a variety of services and support for families of children with disabilities. Here’s a snip from the organization’s about-us:

Urban Partnership Resources and Information on Disability and Education (Urban PRIDE) is a not-for-profit organization and community resource center founded in 1997 to empower and support parents of children with disabilities in inner city Boston to improve the lives of children at home, in school and in the community. We aim to improve the availability of and access to culturally responsive disability related support, information, and training for culturally and linguistically diverse families who have children with disabilities, as well as young adults with disabilities in urban Boston. At Urban PRIDE, we work with families in ways that builds on their strengths and the existing resources in the community.
