PACTT

Parents Allied with Children and Teachers for Tomorrow (PACTT) led by Mike Mahany and Karen Swidler

PACTT is a not-for-profit agency working to serve individuals with autism and their families. Located at 7101 N. Greenview, the PACTT Learning Center is a therapeutic day school serving students ranging in age from 3 to 21.

Parker juniors who choose to work at the Learning Center will work one-on-one with PACTT students in the classroom, help during special events such as the PACTT field day (this year hosted at Parker), accompany students on mps to the park and the lakefront, accompany students during visits to Parker, offer assistance during meals, and be engaged in other activities. In addition, to gain a more global perspective of the struggle for civil rights that people with disabilities experience on a daily basis, juniors will spend time at [|Access Living], a cross-disability organization governed and staffed by a majority of people with disabilities. More information on PACTT and its various programs can be found at [|www.pactt.org].
