Overview of Our Work with Families

We believe in the power of families to demand and shape the transformation of our city’s education system. We support families by providing information, offering workshops and leadership development opportunities, and amplifying parent leadership and power through organizing.

Specifically, we provide families support in the following areas:

Support your child: We provide information and advocacy tools for families to advocate for the needs of your child.

Support your school: We provide tools to understand policies and processes that affect your school and ways in which you can lead and help others take action.

Drive educational change: We train and support leaders ready to participate in campaigns to realize a vision of transformation.

Here is a compilation of family resources.
