Title
Video: The Role of Families and Communities in Education
Abstract/Description
Q&A with Ann Ishimaru, assistant professor, University of Washington, College of Education, on new ways of fostering family engagement in education

Family engagement is a crucial key to success in a child's education. But as communities and schools become more diverse, and parents shoulder work responsibilties, the old models of volunteering may no longer be effective.

A researcher shares how schools and communities are working together to develop innovative, inclusive programs that bring families and teachers together.

Topics covered in this video include:
-The most effective ways to encourage family engagement in education
-Non-traditional ways that parents can be involved at school
-Parents supporting parents to be advocates for their kids
