Description

Low-income parents participate less in schools than higher-income parents despite the benefits of parent involvement. Barriers that low-income parents face suggest that schools must develop a new approach to engaging these parents. School counselors can play a leadership role in strengthening the relationship between schools and low-income parents by implementing community-centered strategies for parent involvement. These strategies respect community culture and parents' abilities to contribute to their children's education. **********
