We are committed to meeting the growing demand for information on effective ways to support family involvement in children’s learning and development. We promote strategies that support children’s learning in school, at home, and in the community. As part of this effort, we:

  • Synthesize our own and others’ research to provide our audiences with the latest and best information about family involvement.
  • Produce engaging, research-based publications that include practical ideas designed to help our audiences right away in their own family involvement work.
  • Facilitate the exchange of ideas and insights among the members of the Family Involvement Network of Educators (FINE)—a community of thousands of higher education faculty, school personnel, researchers, and parents, and community members.
  • Disseminate useful, research-based information about family involvement, including teaching tools, training materials, and research reports, in our FINE newsletters.
  • Build the family involvement field by testing innovative evaluation methods and strategies and providing professional development and preservice training resources, such as teaching cases and syllabi.
