We have a tendency to really focus on jargon and/or regulatory language. And putting things in plain language and making it easily accessible can only improve individuals’ access to the things that they need.

What Does Info Access Look Like?
Connecting with Peers
The Bailey Center for Special Needs shares info in many ways, like through their Caregivers and Coffee program. Each month, parents and other family members meet to support each other and share info. Volunteers provide childcare during these meetings. In August 2025, caregivers met Center staff and learned how to prepare their children for the school year.
