Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC)

SEPAC is a dynamic and dedicated community of parents who advocate for the needs of children with disabilities, organize inclusive events, foster meaningful connections to support families, and advise the Reading School District on special education matters.

Every public school district in Massachusetts is required to establish a SEPAC. Massachusetts state law governs SEPACs, who fill both advisory and participatory roles working with the school districts and community. Membership is always open to all parents and caregivers. 

Please contact SEPAC at SEPACReading@gmail.com if you are interested in joining Reading SEPAC's e-mail list, would like to learn more, or have a question or concern.  You can also follow on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/SEPAC.Reading/ and Instagram at
