The National Parent Involvement Summit brought together representatives from 28 organizations, associations and businesses, including educators, advocates, policymakers, and business leaders. The mission of the Summit was to obtain or renew a strong commitment to family involvement; generate visibility for its mission; strengthen efforts to meet the needs of families of diverse backgrounds; support legislation and policies that include parent and family involvement; and continue communication and collaboration among participants. Small and large group consensus-building activities sought to identify how parents and families should be involved in the educational process as children's first and ongoing teachers, as advocates for their children and themselves within schools; as advocates for schools within the larger community; as partners in school governance and decision-making; and as resources for schools. Summit participants also reached agreement on specific ways in which organizations, businesses, schools, homes, and government could facilitate family involvement in education. The participants also agreed on the goals and strategies needed to carry out the mission of the Summit. A list of Summit participants is included in this report. (AC)
