Every child carries a future inside them. A doctor. A pilot. An engineer. An artist. And every parent carries that same future in their heart. Our work is to make sure every educator knows how to ask the one question that unlocks it all: "What are your hopes and dreams for your child?"

A home visit for every learner. That's our North Star.
433,633 home visits. 61,657 educators trained.
Behind those figures is a conversation that started with: "What are your hopes and dreams for your child?"
And that is the beginning of something incredible happening in school communities around the nation.

Home is where learning begins. A child who doesn't have a safe place to sleep cannot show up ready to learn. There is a strong relationship between housing stability and educational outcomes. Proud to add our voice with @ChildrenNow to #EndYouthHomelessness.

Make sure kids get housing support and join the new Children's Movement campaign TODAY! 🙋🏽‍♀️ 🙋🏿 🙋🏼‍♂️ 👉 bit.ly/44dWD07
Right now, California is moving forward with the biggest housing investment in a decade - $10 billion to build affordable housing across the state. And it doesn’t dedicate a single dollar to housing kids.
The Children's Movement is fighting to change this. By ensuring California's $10 billion housing investment includes dedicated funds for kids, community organizations that serve children will get funds directly and less kids across the state will struggle to find a safe place to sleep. 🫶
The Children’s Movement is more than 6,200 organizations strong. Add your organization and join this campaign TODAY. Let’s stand together and make sure kids get housing support. 👉 bit.ly/44dWD07

Because every learner deserves a teacher who knows them.
Our strategic plan names a clear path forward: strengthen family-educator relationships, advocate for public schools, and expand what's possible when educators and families march in the same direction.

Hard conversations go better when trust already exists. The best answers in this quiz all point to the same thing: connection comes before content. @pthvp trains educators to build that foundation before a crisis ever walks through the door.
Great resource from @sarahdsparks. 👇

When teachers visit families at home with an asset‑based lens, they “see students anew.” This study shows #homevisits function as powerful professional learning, deepening teachers’ understanding of bilingual families’ lives and informing culturally sustaining practice. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

This is what an investment in trust looks like. Congratulations to @WashoeSchools and these 52 extraordinary educators. Washoe County has long understood that when school staff show up for families on their terms, students show up differently too.

"When we broaden our understanding of what engagement looks like, we begin to see families differently. We shift from labeling to listening, from assumptions to partnership. And ultimately, we create stronger conditions for student success."

Recently, @AACountySchools hosted a PTHV Celebration at Severn Run High School's Division of Professional Learning & Organizational Advancement Office, which included group reflections from educators, a passionate address about #PTHV by Alba Morales, School and Community Specialist in the Office of Equity, and a powerful reminder about the danger of a single story from AACPS's Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Maisha Gillins! We're proud of this district's #FamilyEngagement efforts and cannot wait to see how their use of the PTHV model continues to benefit students, families and educators.
