As a 501(c)3 organization, PAR's primary goal is to educate and inform.  We do so using PAR Mails®, Testimonies, other publications and, of course, the PAR website.

PAR has been told by the Office of Developmental Programs that they know PAR members always have the most up-to-date information on the laws, regulations, policies and decisions that affect mental retardation services in Pennsylvania. 

PAR issues our electronic publication to our members almost daily. PAR Mails®, are concise and timely giving providers the information they need to continue providing quality services and supports effectively and efficiently. If something happens on the state or federal level that will affect how individuals with mental retardation receive services or how service providers do business, PAR members are almost always the first to know.

PAR members can access PAR Mails®, by clicking on the links to the left. If you are not a PAR member and want to see what you are missing, contact memberbenefits@par.net.
