A SEPTSA is a unit interested in the issues of education, advocacy, and the support of special needs children, including those who are gifted and talented. SEPTSA encompasses an entire district and is extended to those in the community outside the district as well.

SEPTSA runs similarly to a Parent Teacher Association (PTA). However, the focus of SEPTSA is to bring awareness, information, speakers, parent/guardian and student support groups, and resources specifically aimed at parents/guardians and educators in the special needs community.
