We are slowly building a collection of books, videos and pamphlets focusing on sexual health and HIV to assist parents and other educators. Virtually everyone agrees that parents and caregivers should be the primary sexuality educators of their children - even kids themselves! We understand parents often feel uncomfortable discussing HIV and sexual health with their children. MAP hopes these resources will be useful for parents and educators trying to broach difficult topics. We have a variety of materials that are appropriate for different ages and settings.

Guidelines for Exploring Interagency Opportunities Background on the Parents Helping Parents Project When PACER was established in 1977, it began with one project: Parents Helping Parents. Then as now, PACER was staffed primarily by parents of children with disabilities dedicated to educating other parents and improving the lives of children with disabilities throughout Minnesota. With a small grant from the Minnesota Department of Education, PACER conducted a five-month pilot project and demonstrated the effectiveness of the "parents helping parents" model. Although today PACER offers twenty programs for parents, students, professionals and other parent organizations, the original philosophy of "parents helping parents" remains the foundation upon which PACER has grown. Whether addressing the issue of juvenile justice or assisting youth in making the transition from high school to work place, parents on our staff share their experiences and their knowledge with others so that all Minnesota's children with disabilities may have a better future. Services of the Parents Helping Parents Project Parents Helping Parents provides a wide array of services to help parents better advocate for their children with disabilities. The project is staffed by parent advocates who assist parents by distributing informative materials, conducting workshops and trainings, and providing one-on-one consultations with parents throughout Minnesota.
