Success through collaboration
Fostering equity in family engagement

The Washington Statewide Family Engagement Center

The WASFEC collaborates with partners to enhance family engagement efforts statewide through a five-year federal grant. We foster an equity-driven culture of family engagement, collaborating with families to co-create solutions for historically marginalized children and youth. Our programs empower families, educators, and child development professionals to provide layered support for youth to thrive.

All my work is about centering and being in right relationship with community. Right relationship: mutual love and respect. Awareness and understanding of expectations. Clear communication. Solidified agreement. Trusting all contributing parties to follow through. Believing in each other’s value and capabilities.
