Event Description

For the past four years, immigrant parents from JUNTOS and SEAMAAC have been developing their leadership in organizing for language access resources and immigrant friendly programming in the Philadelphia School District.

 
These parents participated in a series of workshops and regular meetings to discuss their visions for immigrant-friendly schools, visited schools nationally with innovative programs for immigrant families, and conducted surveys with school principals to identify resources and best practices for immigrant parents and students.


At the summit, parent leadership in South Philadelphia will share their action plan for immigrant-friendly schools with parents, students, principals, District officials, and community members. 


RSVP to with the number of people you will bring to Zac Steele or Katie Souder at mexjuntos1@yahoo.com, (215)-218-9079, or Nicole Yarbrough atnyarbrough@seamaac.org, (215)-467-0690.
