The Elevating Family Voices Workbook is a resource designed to support meaningful community participation and robust family engagement in planning for ideal learning environments for young children.
In seeking to develop early learning goals aligned with the Principles of Ideal Learning, it is critical to include family engagement. Input is especially important from those most impacted by systemic inequities resulting from race and ethnicity, language, socioeconomic status, and ability.
We hope the Elevating Family Voices workbook will be useful for local leaders (e.g., superintendents, early childhood council members, program administrators) who are working to support and/or implement ideal learning approaches in early childhood education.
