The purpose of this study was to determine the factors related to a parent\u27s involvement in their child\u27s education. More specifically it addressed the factors related to the involvement by parents of children with learning disabilities. The subjects (n=52) were all parents of children with learning disabilities. All parents attending a convention sponsored by the Learning Disabilities Association of North Carolina were surveyed. A self-developed questionnaire was used for this research. 37% of the questionnaires were returned. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a Pearson r. A significant correlation was found between teacher involvement and parental involvement (r= .33, p\u3c.05). The return rate was not high and this was a limitation in generalizing the results. A recommendation would be to use a larger population with subjects from several conventions
