### ON-DEMAND WEBINAR

# Family Engagement: Assumptions Made, Lessons Learned

It’s easy to make assumptions about what families need, what family engagement should look like, and why families don’t engage. In this on-demand webinar, two family engagement experts share stories from the field about assumptions they’ve made about families that turned out not to be true. They share what they learned from these experiences and how they led to new systems and tools to break down barriers to engagement and respond to families' strengths and needs.
