School/Family Partnerships 

TDP engages teachers and families in building deeper connections so that students have the support they need to succeed academically. We emphasize building authentic relationships that set the stage for meaningful partnerships.

Advocacy Work

TDP listens to families and educators as they tackle issues in their schools and in response to larger national and local trends. We couple what we know from schools with other research to help us advocate for better policies and practices. We gather people to discuss school board meetings, school-level concern, to explore the national trends and strive to create more equity and inclusion in school decision making.

Building Resilience

We offer a 9-week workshop series where we work with families to help them heal from trauma, break harmful cycles across generations and reclaim connection. This work grew out of what families said they needed in order to foster family stability and thriving.
