Community Leadership

Our Community Leadership initiatives empower families and community members to actively participate in decision-making processes and drive positive change. Through family engagement programs, the Parent Policy Council, community-centric fundraising efforts, and fiscal sponsorships, we foster collaboration, leadership, and sustainable support for local projects. These initiatives ensure that the voices of families and the broader community are at the heart of shaping our programs and guiding our mission.
