Square Pizza Audience, we have a special episode from our family empowerment work. We host quarterly convenings for leaders and key players from our family empowerment cohort to gather and share insights and best practices related to family engagement and empowerment at the school level. This round was focused on College Readiness and Family Support. Jia Lin-Bothe, our Director of Family Empowerment, hosted a panel discussion featuring a few of our community partners focused on college readiness and persistence: Amy Garcia (Program Manager, Latin American Working for Achievement), Katie Weisman (Director of Academic Success, Carolina Youth Coalition), and Mackenzie Wilkins (Program Manager, College LAUNCH for Leadership, Wake Forest University). Listen for best practices when it comes to family engagement and empowerment and college readiness, as well as success stories and resources!
