We are having monthly calls on the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00 PM Eastern (6:00 Central). We use this real-time forum to discuss priorities, select which tasks to work on as a group and engage in specific activities such as our selection of the conference sessions for our track at the next National School Based Mental Health Conference. Please see the Call Notes folder in the Repository for prior calls.
Reminders are sent to the practice group prior to the call so be sure and add your name to the mailing list for this group.

TELL A FRIEND! We have an open door for participants in our Family School Community Partnerships group. Please talk amongst your colleagues, no matter what the discipline, this practice group crosses many areas and is an essential piece of school mental health. It's easy to sign-up and become an active member of the group!
OUR MISSION is to provide information for families and to ensure their participation as full partners who advocate and build leadership
OUR DISCUSSION SECTION is used for some of our work together. We have worked on our mission, priorities, name and other work using this forum. This is a place to build our relationships by working together in a very transparent and open way. Currently we are working on crafting a family driven model of family engagement using qualitative analysis of a survey that we conducted on family engagement.
THE REPOSITORY includes the key initial activities of this workgroup, notes from our conference calls, meeting notes, our current work on defining family engagement as well as salient documents from across the field on family driven/family involvement, family support, family engagement organized into folders.
Happy reading!
