Title

Co-Designing Family and Community Wellness and Educational Justice: Findings From the Family Leadership Design Collaborative [Session 42.039]

Abstract/Description

This session highlights research of the Family Leadership Design Collaborative, a national network of scholars, practitioners, and family/community leaders working to co-design a transformative research agenda, tools, and practices in pursuit of family and community wellness and educational justice. After framing the project and our guiding principles, the subsequent papers examine the findings of design circles – a methodological innovation on focus groups from participatory design research (PDR)—in five different geographic contexts and cultural communities. The papers highlight key tensions and transformative possibilities for co-designing with nondominant families and communities and informing a set of strategic opportunities for change to family engagement policy, practice, and research.
