Curriculum & Methods — Little Sun People.pdf

Little Sun People

“Our findings challenge the notion that ‘race blindness’ is a universally ideal parenting approach, especially since previous research has shown that racially conscious parenting strategies at either extreme—either ‘race blindness’ or promoting mistrust of other races—are associated with negative outcomes for African American youth. When African American parents instill a proud, informed, and sober perspective of race in their sons and daughters, these children are more likely to experience increased academic success.”

NBHE-Getting-Started-Packet.pdf

The National Black Home Educators is an organization that seeks to serve each and every family across the United States. The goal of this organization is ultimately to see strong families with healthy parent child relationships. NBHE also desires to see every child provided with the excellent education they deserve. We believe that every child deserves a world class education. This organization believes that these two goals can be achieved simultaneously through parent directed education.

Studies show that parental involvement in education not only boosts the child’s interest in education, but strengthens the tie between parent and child. NBHE was created first of all to inspire parents with the idea that they can empower their children for excellence, and secondly to give them the tools to do so. NBHE continually provides free information and training resources to parents.

NBHE is a grassroots organization that functions on the basis of parents volunteering to help other parents. NBHE touches the lives of families across the nation through its wonderful support basis. We welcome you to join the team as an empowered parent to impact the lives of your children and the children of our nation!

Technical_Assistance_Community_Schools_Implementation_BRIEF.pdf

Across the United States, a number of states have invested in community schools as a strategy to address long-standing social inequities that have been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.1 Community schools2 are intended to repair the fragmented, bureaucratic, social services gauntlet that families in need must often navigate with a student-focused approach that organizes resources from community partners where they can be most easily accessed: in school.
