State Of Connecticut Street, Second Floor, Hartford, connecticut 06106 (860 Coalition for parent Involvementin education). family literacy, parent meeting, parent resource centers. http://www.cga.state.ct.us/coc/Why Parent Involvement.htm
Extractions: The challenge for educators is to provide the leadership needed to bring the home, school and community together in meaningful ways to promote school readiness and school success for children. Many parents are distanced from the educational environment and the majority of educators do not know how to work well with parents. Children grow in a web of institutions: family, neighborhood, schools, church, social and health agencies that service children, local government and private employers. The interest of the child is best served when all parts of the system collaborate to support the needs of the child.

Extractions: Connecticut Sets Three Goals for School-Family-Community Partnerships Goal 1. Promote a Comprehensive Definition of School-Family-Community Partnerships. A Policy Action Packet for School-Family-Community Partnerships: A Guide to Developing Partnership Programs for Student Success. The publication was designed to help districts develop local policies and build programs consistent with the new state law. A biannual newsletter also promotes the development of partnership programs, calls attention to research and policy developments, and highlights local programs. Goal 2: Train School Teams to Develop and Maintain School-Family-Community Partnerships. A major activity of the Partnership Project is providing two-day training workshops and on-going technical assistance to school-based teams. The action-oriented teams from schools in several districts develop and maintain programs of school, family, and community partnerships focused on student success. The training is based on Epsteins framework which helps the state and its schools work well with the National Network of Partnership Schools. The Project also conducts a competitive grants program for small cash stipends to support partnerships in schools with high educational and economic needs. "Hot Topic" workshops are conducted twice a year for school teams on subjects such as how partnerships support early literacy, improve student behavior, and reduce violence in schools and communities.
