Family Engagement Institutes

  • Home
  • Family Engagement Institutes

Based on more than 20 years of experience working with families, Families In Schools has developed an array of tools and trainings that help educational institutions, and community based organizations, better work with and partner with families. Our Family Engagement & Best Practices Institutes focus on helping school, district and organizational staff learn about research-based strategies and best practices for creating an environment for effective and authentic family engagement.

Our institutes are a compliant use of Title I funds, allocated for professional development and family involvement, and other state and federal funds reserved for school improvement and family involvement.
