Parent Voices – Resources
Posted by The Aspen Institute on August 10, 2021
Every family deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential but many families – particularly families with low incomes, families of color, families led by single parents, and non-English speaking families – face barriers to existing structures and systems that limit their ability to benefit from these foundational environments and experiences.
Parents’ and caregivers’ insights, dreams, and lived experiences are powerful tools to advancing equity and strengthening family well-being, which is why listening to Parent Voice is a hallmark of the 2Gen approach. To celebrate National Parents Day (7/25), Ascend created a new Parent Voices microsite that shares testimony from families as well as curates parent engagement best practices.
