The CPIR shares news and resources with the Parent Center network and others via our e-newsletter the Buzz from the Hub.
Each Buzz spotlights an issue of importance to Parent Centers, identifies resources on the network’s priority topics, and includes resources Parent Centers can share with the families they serve.

The Buzz is Back! We took a break, solicited your feedback, and we’re thrilled to announce some exciting changes to the Buzz from the Hub! Once you sign up you can expect to find the monthly Buzz in your inbox! We’re thrilled to introduce a fresh new look with informative articles, upcoming events, and resources designed with you in mind. Feel free to share far and wide with those who you feel will benefit from the information found in the Buzz!
This Buzz focuses on info that front-line Parent Center staff and others can use when working with the families and professionals seeking information about autism, health conditions, or mental health issues. The connections you make with others and the support you give every day vibrate at the very heart of your Parent Center. May these few resources further support the great work that you do.
Here we are, closing out one fiscal year and throwing ourselves into a new one. We have many new resources to share with you, including the latest roadmap for returning to school from the Feds.
Summer is merging into fall, and a new academic school year begins. With regret and excitement both, we climb aboard for the next part of this ride, take a deep breath, and look around us and ahead. Lots to do, and that’s nothing new. Stand tall, here we go. And may these resources (for families and communities; from the Feds) be of help and support along the way.
There’s so much going on! Information, news, and resources are flying off the shelves and buzzing around our heads. It’s a challenge to focus, grab the ones you can use, and then find the time to actually use them. This Buzz alerts you to 7 resources you may find helpful in “embracing the chaos.” And may they support your work with families and schools.
This Buzz brings you news of several recent resources to support your Center’s work with families of young children with disabilities.
Keeping our wits about us is no laughing matter these days. Our own mental health and that of our children, students, and colleagues are priorities all too easily overlooked as we rush around with endless to-do lists. We’ve focused the resources in this Buzz on strategies for embedding mental health awareness and care at home, at school, and in the workplace.
