Conversation Starter Tools: A Participatory Research Guide to Building Stronger Family, School, and Community Partnerships

Families and communities are key drivers of demand and buy-in for transformation and important allies to schools in supporting students and schools to thrive. Yet, in many schools around the world, family, school, and community engagement remains easier said than done. Schools often lack sufficient data, dialogue, and directions to implement inclusive, equity-focused, and responsive, family, school, and community engagement practices and policies. To help bridge this gap from theory to action, CUE has developed the “Conversation Starter Tools: A Participatory Research Guide to Building Stronger Family, School, and Community Partnerships.”
