Challenging Ourselves: Rethinking Family Engagement – Crane Center 2021 Symposium on Children Registration Open

October 8, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Partnering with families to enhance their children’s learning and development must take into account the diverse socioeconomic and racial backgrounds of families as well as their engagement needs. Dr. Angel Harris, professor of sociology at Duke University, researches social inequity, policy, and education and joins us for this year’s Symposium to discuss family engagement. Dr. Harris’ book, The Broken Compass, examines engagement strategies for diverse socioeconomically and ethnically diverse backgrounds. Prepare for a day of provocative discussion and learning regarding 1) family engagement strategies tailored to meet family needs and 2) why particular engagement strategies work best for certain families.
