Mental Health Tips for Families
Mental Health Tips for Families “It feels doable. They are practical things. A 1 pager, how to have conversations with your child around this. The schools want that. They don’t have the time or capacity to create those 1 pagers.” – Education Program Administrator
Annual Summit
"I am not typically one to attend and engage for a full day but I couldn’t tear away. It was the most profound learning I have had in a very long time. It was worth the whole day and I would have stayed for more this evening!" – Attendee at 2023 Ohio Family Engagement Leadership Summit
Dyslexia Resources
"Your tools for the Dyslexia Legislation are so helpful. As I am trying to explain different aspects of the legislation, I am sharing and pulling up your graphics and explanations and it is making a world of difference for the leaders and teachers in my district." - Juakita Bowens, Coordinator of Structured Literacy, Newark City Schools
Professional Learning
“I used to think that some of the challenges I was facing were too hard, but now I have learned an effective way to create action steps to design solutions.” – Foundations of Family Engagement Course Participant

Annual Summit

“This Summit was amazing. High level information as well as detailed information to help the attendees imagine the possibilities. The sharing of ideas is so crucial, and while the ideas may not work for each district, they still provide a jumping off point and a reason to elevate our thinking, goals, and (hopefully) outcomes.”
