How often do you hear, "The only parents who showed were the
parents who didn't need to be here." But how often do you consider
time of day, lack of child care, cost of dinner, transportation,
lan guage of the presentation, even relevance of the topic-all
real-world barriers for families of our historically underserved
students. Here at last is a resource that will open up access and
reveal all-new ways to forge more culturally inclusive partnerships
with families and communities . . . partnerships that extend well
beyond parent-teacher conferences, PTA meetings, and the occasional
bake sale. The two big services Equity Partnerships provides? Using
the Tools of Cultural Proficiency, you'll Discover new concepts and
strategies to engage families and communities-and reduce, if not
eliminate, barriers--through four essential principles:
communication, connection, collaboration, and community Engage in
frequent opportunities to reflect on your own assumptions and
values, then collaborate with colleagues to co-create systemic
practices and policies for devising, implementing, and assessing
family and community engagement actions in your schools and
districts We know inherently that family and community engagement
is critical to the success of our stu dents. Let Equity
Partnerships be your go-to tool for breaking down the walls that
for too long have limited all of us. "Raising the next generation
is a shared responsibility and privilege. These authors have been
first responders for decades by pro moting Cultural Proficiency as
a means to ensure equity and access for all. In Equity
Partnerships, they identify the powerful and critical link of
family, school, and community engage ment to strengthen families,
build community support, and increase student success." --TRUDY
ARRIAGA, Associate Dean for Equity and Outreach, California
Lutheran University, and Coauthor of Opening Doors
