Parent and Family Involvement: Beyond the Bell Toolkit
Posted by on January 14, 2013
Parent and Family Involvement: Beyond the Bell Toolkit. December 2012. The sixth chapter in the Beyond the Bell Toolkit, Parent and Family Involvement, introduces ways to get parents involved in afterschool programming. This is one of the most important aspects of a strong afterschool program because, as the Harvard Family Research Project (2007) points out, youth who have disengaged or restrictive parents are less likely to participate in afterschool programs. Horowitz and Bronte-Tinkew (2007) discuss the significance of family involvement in afterschool programs. PSAYDN.
