Broward
County
The
Broward County Council of PTA has been selected by the National PTA as one of
six
sites for the Urban Family Engagement Network project. The Urban Family
Engagement Network project is designed to train parents and community leaders,
engage underserved families, and connect families to valuable community
resources through a series of 12 workshop sessions.
The
goal of this grassroots training is to equip parents with the tools to support
their children’s academic success, provide opportunities to build leadership
skills and empower parents to get engaged in active advocacy efforts to ensure
that all children have access to a quality education.
Each
3 hour workshop will consist of two sessions for a total of 12 sessions. We
encourage participants to attend all the sessions in order to complete this
National PTA training.
We invite all PTAs, parents and members of the community
to register and attend these workshops. Materials, child care and food will be
available for participants. Please fill out the attached registration form or you
can find the form online at https://sites.google.com/site/browardptsa/urban and
email it to browardpta1@gmail.com
