Welcome, PPCRN is a fourteen year old statewide cross-disability, grassroots network that supports parents' and caregivers' efforts to help their children and adult family members with developmental disabilities.

PPCRN and its POWER Network help families to form local groups and to network with other parents and family caregivers in their regions and across the state. We promote inclusionary practices in all areas of life among families of children and adults with developmental disabilities.

Search our website or call us at the numbers below for information about developmental disabilities, special education concerns, consultation for developing parent groups or information about workshops.

If you are a Pennsylvania parent or family caregiver of a child or family member with developmental disabilities and would like to receive our newsletter, please send your name, address and phone number to: info@ppcrn.org.

Project Office: 1-888-572-7368

The POWER Network: for families of adults with developmental disabilities who have concerns or need information about disabilities, services or who are forming parent groups call our central office: 1-888-572-7368

Many thanks to the PA Developmental Disabilities Council who funds PPCRN through Lilly Lights, LLC.
