program team. In addition, the California Children's Services has a
medical therapy unit at the Mauzy site.
Parents are an integral part of our team and provide insight into their child's development and needs. The Mauzy Foundation is an active parent organization that provides funding for classroom equipment and materials that give additional support to all of the special needs students served in the Central County Regional Programs.
