Parental Guidance Programs
YLFT recognizes the important link between child development and parental support. The Learning Center staff serves as liaisons between parents and teachers, providing transportation to parent-teacher conferences and regular meetings with the teachers of enrolled students. Active parents from the centers have created grassroots networks to raise funds for student field trips and nightly meals. Parents must commit to serving on-site at the Learning Centers, engage in monthly meetings with staff to discuss strategies to improve lives of children & the community, and attend student/teacher conferences with Learning Center staff when enrolling their children in the program. Parental Enrichment Activities include educational seminars on leadership, parenting, homeownership and financial development.
