Parent and Community Involvement Internet Resouces National Education goals for the year 2000 state that "every school will promote partnerships that will increase parental involvement and participation in promoting the social, emotional, and academic growth of children." These goals can be met through involvement on multiple levels and by multiple participants: Schools can involve parents in the decision-making process educating and training them in curriculum, budget, reform and other issues; facilitating their participation in course selection and student placement; and providing parents with current information on school policies and student performance. Teachers can help parents become more involved in the education of their children by integrating parent involvement activities into the curriculum and being sensitive to difficulties that may hinder their involvement. Parents can construct a relationship with schools and teachers through a variety of strategies , such as personal communication with teachers (notes, phone calls, meetings), asking the teachers for regular feedback (positive as well as negative), volunteering to assist with school activities, and monitoring their child's homework.

The Special Needs Enhanced Counseling Service The Maryland Committee for Children (MCC) has incorporated as its philosophy the belief that all children, regardless of disabilities, are entitled to accessible, affordable and quality child care. MCC believes that it is the parent’s right to make an informed decision concerning their child care needs. As a result, MCC developed LOCATE: Child Care Special Needs Enhanced Counseling Service. Through a grant from the Maryland State Department of Education, any parent in Maryland who has a child or children with disabilities, ages birth through 21 years of age, may access The Special Needs Enhanced Counseling Service. This service offers specialized one on one assistance and support to parents in need of child care. For the purposes of this service, LOCATE: Child Care defines special needs as any diagnosed disability; severe(life threatening) food allergies and/or asthma; any child who has been dismissed from child care due to behavior or emotional problems; any child receiving services through the Maryland Infants and Toddlers Program; any child receiving special education services through a school system; and any child who is not meeting developmental milestones such as speech and language delays. How does the Special Needs Enhanced Service help parents to find child care?
