Inclusion Warm Line

The Inclusion Support “Warm Line” is a free support, information and referral service regarding the inclusion of children with special needs and disabilities in our community.

A service of the Inclusion Collaborative, the Warm Line invites parents and early education providers to email inclusionwarmline@sccoe.org or call (408) 453–6651 and leave a message at any time. The call will be returned within one working day by a Warm Line specialist.

The specialist is a parent of a child with special needs and has over five years of experience working with parents and providers in special education and general education.

The Warm Line provides:

  • Advice to educators who are implementing inclusion in their programs, or who want to start an inclusive model
  • Suggestions and resource referrals to providers with questions regarding children in their program displaying challenging behaviors.
  • Answers to questions from parents regarding inclusion programs
  • Resources for transitions among and between programs (e.g. hospital to home, home to childcare/Early Start, Early Start to preschool, preschool to kindergarten, etc.)
  • Links to resources, agencies, and services in the community.
  • Referrals to an Inclusion Coach, based on needs.
