Action has begun!! Part #1

A call to action to increase parental/family and community engagement!

The Parent Support For Education Council, Inc. (PSFEC) has invested much time and energy focusing on the important issue of increasing parental/family and community engagement and we will continue to go forward in the power and guidance of the Holy Spirit of God!

One of the most difficult problems in our schools is the lack of parental/family and community engagement. Although there are many families and community members engaged in the lives of children, many people still aren’t aware of the problem.
