Building the Future of Family Involvement

Harvard Family Research Project:

NEW ISSUE OF "THE EVALUATION EXCHANGE"

Harvard Family Research Project is pleased to announce our newest issue of "The Evaluation Exchange" on Building the Future of Family Involvement.

WHAT'S IN THIS ISSUE

Examining family involvement in policy, practice, and research, this issue explores where the field is today and where it needs to go in the future. The issue draws on HFRP's 25-year history of family involvement expertise and features innovative initiatives, new evaluation approaches and findings, and interviews with experts. It includes perspectives from the field’s most respected leaders, including:

* Rudy Crew, Superintendent of the Miami-Dade County Public Schools

* Karen Mapp, Anne Henderson, Kathy Hoover-Dempsey, Arnold Fege, and other researchers and experts

* The National Parental Information and Resource Centers (PIRCs) and the National PTA

* Longtime and emerging leaders in practice, research, and evaluation who are developing and implementing promising approaches

It is our hope that this issue will spark discussion about new directions for family involvement moving forward. We invite you to explore the issue, pass it on to your friends and colleagues, and share your thoughts with us and with others in the field.
