Engage Continuum

About

The ENGAGE Mission

Improve child development by supporting positive, goal-oriented relationships between early childhood educators and families.

Engage Continuum logo

We Do This By
Providing high-quality training linked with technical assistance to encourage:

  • Positive, goal-oriented, culturally responsive relationships.
  • Respect for parents who are the first and lifelong educators of their children.
  • Supportive networks, connections, and community resources for families.
  • Use of tools to support and encourage relationships. These tools help educators work with—not for—families.
