If you support family engagement in education, join thousands of advocates in urging Congress to
prioritize the PIRC line item in reauthorization of ESEA by reinstating program funding in FY12 appropriations.
Without funding for PIRCs, efforts to ensure all school districts and states have the capacity to
meaningfully engage all parents will be hindered and valuable services will be lost, such as:
·
Parent leadership academies
·
Teacher and administrative staff trainings
·
Sharing of best practices
Please call 1-866-220-0044, today, and ask to be connected
to your Senators and Representative. Take action now!
