CRECIENDO JUNTOS

Community Education Workers (promotores de educación) conduct home visits for low-income families, families of color, and English language learners in Multnomah County with a focus on families who have a child under the age of six. In addition to home visits, promotores facilitate school-based, culturally responsive parent-child workshops.

Parent-child classes focused on children with ages 0-3 provide extra support and training during 20-week group sessions. Promotores facilitate these sessions in Spanish in schools throughout Multnomah County including:

James John Elementary

Early Boyles Elementary

Glenfair Elementary

Promotores de educación (community education workers) visit families with children with ages 0-6 in their own homes to:

Build positive parent-child interaction skills and support parent well-being

Increase access to childhood health and developmental screenings

Create positive connections to schools and other community agencies
