PIVOTal Parent Workshop Series
UPCOMING PARENT WORKSHOP
One of the things that we do our best to be true to, is to listen to parents and caregivers, when they tell us what they need and want. Based on the feedback from our October workshops, parents shared that they wanted to know more about the resources they heard us mention on the first two workshop calls: Youth Leadership Councils, legal support, student athlete support, mentorship. They were particularly interested in these resources at no cost. We listened.
On Tuesday, November 21, 2023, we are hosting our 3rd workshop in our PIVOTal Parents Workshop Series, where we will introduce parents, caregivers and PCs to the Project PIVOT team members who lead the various supplemental supports that we have available. Following that one of our partners will share additional free, funded resources that families can take advantage of.
There will be interpreters available in Spanish, French and Haitian-Creole.
