Family Advocacy Support and Training (FAST) Project

PACER Center’s National Family Advocacy and Supports Training (FAST) Project provides family support leadership training to families of children with disabilities in the United States & territories. The FAST Project developed four training curricula for families of children with disabilities from diverse racial & linguistic groups, families in poverty, those living in rural & urban areas, military families, & other underserved families to use in an effort to increase their ability of families to advocate for family support services & influence systems change. The four curricula addresses topics relating to Employment, Sexuality & Youth Development, Advocating for Your Family, & Strategies for Systems Change.  http://www.fastfamilysupport.org/fasttraining/index.asp
