The Georgia Parent Mentor Partnership’s 105 active Parent Mentors are all committed to assisting administration, staff and stakeholders in their districts to focus on family engagement and improving graduation rates for students with disabilities.

Our goals are to:

Inform – about the research and results in districts who have a planned initiative focused on family engagement

Imagine – the possibilities for students

Inspire – others to work on improving family engagement strategies in school and out in the community
