Family Friendly Spaces
In pursuit of becoming a leader as a community-engaged college, the College of Education and P-16 Integration (CEP) advanced Family Friendly Spaces initiatives in collaboration with the Office of Community Engagement and Assessment and local civic engagement organizations. Through these partnerships, CEP has successfully launched various projects to create special connections and spaces for families and community members in the college. Projects have included the annual Bring Your Family Member to Class Day, a photovoice project El Lenguaje Universal: Las Photos and Nuestro Jardin de Familias.
The College of Education and P-16 Integration strives to serve as a “cultural broker,” bridging student and family experiences as an approach to provide family and community access to the college to demonstrate shared importance of cultural values and showcase family and community successes.
