This grant position was created in response to COVID-19 and the growing needs of our children, families and local communities.

As the Family and Community Liaison, I am here to help school districts support vulnerable youth and families. I am highly engaged in community organizations throughout Ashland, Holmes, and Wayne counties in an effort to help schools better understand and utilize services and supports that are available in their area. I work with school districts to foster transformative partnerships with families and communities to improve student wellness, increase family engagement, and serve the whole child.

How can I help you?

• Support your family engagement efforts through professional development and information sharing

• Provide consultation and deliver recommendations for those tricky family situations when school staff are not sure where to turn for help and/or do not have the extra time to search multiple resources

• Create resource lists specific to needs and/or locations to be shared with school staff and/or families

• Answer questions regarding HB123, the SAVE Students Act.
