Mission Statement
Our Mission- to increase the opportunities for home, community and school success for children with disabilities, including those who are at risk or who have serious emotional disturbances, their families and their service providers, through education, encouragement and empowerment activities.
About This Cause
Nevada PEP is a statewide non-profit organization offering education, empowerment, and encouragement to families of children with all disabilities. PEP provides a variety of training workshops on special education and disability related topics. Over 20 years ago, Nevada PEP started with a dream, a hope and a vision of what is possible for our children. Supported by dedicated professionals, our mission began with families sitting around a kitchen table looking into the future; seeing their children growing, thriving, and experiencing all that life has to offer. Yet, we recognized that between dream and reality stood obstacles and challenges that would have to be overcome. So began Nevada PEP, a family-driven statewide nonprofit organization. PEP services are about empowering families to be life-long advocates for their children through education and skill building. PEP recognizes that parents are experts on their children; and must learn about disabilities, intervention needs, and how to develop a support to meet those needs. PEP is a family of families caring supporting and guiding one another through the challenges of raising children. When family and friends don't understand, parents always have someone to talk to at PEP. All of our staff has been impacted by a disability in some way and know that navigating a challenging support system alone can be overwhelming.Over the years, not only has PEP made a difference in the individual lives of families, PEP has also made a positive impact on child and family services through community collaboration, public awareness, partnering with professional and system advocacy efforts.
