Tips for Teachers and Trainers: The June Community Connections newsletter recommends three web sites that can help families plan travel and vacations with their children with special needs. Ask students / staff to look at People and Places (http://www.disabilitytravel.com/), Family Networks (http://www.family-networks.org) and / or Access-Able Travel Source (http://www.access-able.com), and share the information with a family or families with whom they work.
