The Ohio Statewide Family Engagement Center at the Center on Education and Training for Employment at The Ohio State University hosted its inaugural Leading Multi-Tiered Family Engagement Institute in Columbus, Ohio from July 28-31, 2025. This four-day professional learning experience brought together family-facing professionals from across Ohio and Kentucky. Through interactive activities, peer collaboration, and the use of the Multi-Tiered Family Engagement Toolkit, participants deepened their understanding and emerged prepared to lead and implement Multi-Tiered Family Engagement within their own settings.
“Schools often organize their work into tiers – Universal Tier 1 supports for all students, Targeted Tier 2 supports for subsets of students needing some additional support, and Intensive Tier 3 supports for individual students needing the most guidance. Schools can also think about their work with students’ families in these tiers.” – Ohio Statewide Family Engagement Center at OSU
