Sustaining Parent Engagement throughout the Cradle to Career Continuum (GPRAs 12-14)

Author: PolicyLink | Year of Publication: 2016

Parent and community engagement is critical to achieving and sustaining Promise Neighborhoods results. Research demonstrates children whose parents are involved in their reading and learning are more likely to have stronger academic performances and fewer absences. During this webinar, Marilyn Joseph (Harlem Children’s Zone) and Alysha Price and Michelle Martin (Northside Achievement Zone) discuss strategies to ensure parents are reading to their children, preparing them for college and career success, and equipping them with the skills and access needed to meaningfully contribute to the achievement of results at every stage of the cradle-to-career continuum (Government Performance and Results Act indicators 12–14 per previous 2013 guidance).
