Tools for Latino Family Outreach: Supporting Student Success in the Middle Grades and Beyond

By PALMS (Postsecondary Access for Latino Middle-grades Students) project staff

EDC’s PALMS project developed Tools for Latino Family Outreach: Supporting Student Success in the Middle Grades and Beyond to assist school leaders in building or strengthening outreach programs that targets Latino families. The toolkit incorporates the findings of a study PALMS conducted on the best practices for reaching out to Latino families and was field tested for usability in five middle-grades schools across the U.S. Even educators with well-established parent outreach programs gained new ideas and inspiration from using the tools.
