Exceptional Children's Assistance Center is a private non-profit parent organization committed to improving the lives and education of ALL children through a special emphasis on children with disabilities.
ECAC affirms the right of all individuals, from all backgrounds and cultures, with or without disabilities, to an appropriate education and other needed services.
We seek to make that right a reality by providing information, education, outreach, and support to and for families with children across the state of North Carolina.
