CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — A center that helps educate West Virginia parents of children with disabilities is getting a $200,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Education.

Rep. David McKinley announced the grant to West Virginia Parent Training and Information Inc. this week.

McKinley says the center has been dedicated to helping parents of children with disabilities through the concept of parents helping parents.

The Training and Information for Parents of Children with Disabilities Program works to ensure that parents of children with disabilities receive training and information to help improve results for their children.

All services to parents and families from the center are free and are available across the state.
