Through the course of activities associated with Projects implementation, various products or outputs have been produced of interest to families with children experiencing disabilities. These have been developed through the efforts of parents who themselves are raising young children with disabilities, to be shared with other parents encountering similar experiences. Their expertise and experiences are interwoven into what we share with you here.

Multnomah Parent Action Committee Lending Library

This is a catalog of book titles, compiled by Multnomah Early Childhood Program (MECP) alumni parent-advocate, Chloe Eudaly, through the recommendations of other parents from the Portland Metro region and from around the state. A synopsis of each of the 50 titles is included, with books varying from child-rearing, activities to do/places to visit, to philosophical personal journeys of parents, siblings, and self-advocates, to technical information on inclusion and special education. Although some of the titles can be found through the Multnomah County Library system, Oregon Parent Training and Information Center (OrPTI)/Jean Baton’s Swindells Resource Center (Providence Hospitals), and Alexandra Ellis Resource Center (Emmanuel Hospitals), all of these books can be found at the Edwards School and Thompson School sites of the Multnomah Early Childhood Program (MECP).
