Parents Engaged in Education
Legal name: PARENTS ENGAGED IN EDUCATION
Parents Engaged in Education works directly with families in Toronto schools to strengthen parent involvement in their children's learning. The organization provides workshops, training, and resources that help parents understand curriculum content, navigate the education system, and advocate effectively for their kids. By building stronger connections between home and school, Parents Engaged in Education addresses gaps that often widen for families facing language barriers, systemic obstacles, or lack of prior experience with Canadian schools. The charity focuses on practical skills like helping parents communicate with teachers, understanding report cards, and supporting literacy and numeracy at home. Their programs reach families across the GTA, particularly those who face the greatest barriers to meaningful school participation.
