Offering responsive programs to all children and their families can be challenging but very rewarding. If your program is especially culturally and economically diverse, understanding and respecting the various cultural differences is critical to meeting the need of the families. This webinar will zoom in on the specific needs of Hispanic children programs serving low income families, and the strategies your program needs to employ to engage their families. Yvette Sanchez Fuentes President, National Alliance for Hispanic Families, and former Director for the Office of Head Start at the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), will walk through:
- the research and public policy issues framing the challenges of low-income Hispanic families in the US,
- implications for best practice in early education settings, and
- practical cultural and linguistic strategies for engaging families.
Join this powerful webinar to enhance your program’s family engagement strategies to make a difference for Hispanic children.
