Earlier this year we conducted a brief 3-question survey with Parent Center subscribers to reassess their needs. Respondents provided us with useful feedback and we are excited to share the results below!
Buzz from the Hub
Twice a month, the CPIR shares news and resources with the Parent Center network and others via our e-newsletter the Buzz from the Hub.
Each Buzz spotlights an issue of importance to Parent Centers, identifies resources on the network’s priority topics, and includes resources Parent Centers can share with the families they serve.
