PARENT PRESENTATIONS
Educating and Empowering Parents
With this initiative, our goal is to engage parents in the work we are doing for their youth. With access to the right resources, parents can get in touch with their own abilities and gain the confidence to help guide the future of our youth. Learn more about how to get involved today. Parents who already feel confident in their knowledge can volunteer to give presentations as well.
