This workshop will challenge schools to create an environment that considers the unique needs of their parents. It will help schools to overcome challenges and effectively engage parents while fostering stronger ties between district leaders, principals, teachers and parents. It will also equip parents with the tools they need to advocate for, and support their scholars. In addition, it will provide practical strategies that have worked to empower parents and families.
