Support the REED Scholarship
Your donation helps us offer advocacy, training, and support to families who can’t afford it — through our REED Scholarship program.
Why Your Gift Matters
When you donate to the Parent Alliance for Students with Exceptional Needs (PASEN), your contribution directly supports our REED Scholarship program.
This scholarship helps families access discounted advocacy services, memberships, and educational resources, even when cost is still a barrier.
We understand that not every family can afford help when they need it most. While our team gives generously of their time, continued support takes resources.
Your donation helps ensure families get the support they need, our advocates are compensated fairly, and our mission remains strong.
PASEN is a registered 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN 83-2054691). All donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law. If you need a written acknowledgment for a gift of $250 or more, we’ll be happy to provide one upon request.
What is the REED Scholarship?
The REED Scholarship was created to ensure no family is turned away simply because they can’t afford help. Named in honor of families who never give up, the scholarship is funded entirely by donations from people like you.
It provides:
• Free or heavily discounted PASEN memberships
• Reduced rates for the NASEAT® training program
• Advocacy support for urgent and crisis cases
• Free resources and tools for families in need
Your donation directly fuels these services — and helps children get the education they deserve.

Thank you for standing with us, and for believing that every child deserves an advocate.
