About Nevada PEP 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 system 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.
