Family Engagement Community

What Sets Us Apart – FER Community Network

What sets the Family Engagement in Research (FER) Program apart is our vibrant community network. Learners don't just join us for a 10-week course—they become part of our FER community, a network of individuals passionate about championing meaningful family engagement. Through facilitating a bi-monthly community of practice, providing individual and small group mentorship, brokering relationships, and sharing educational materials, our community network supports graduates long after the course ends.

We share FER-related educational materials through various established social media channels, our FER Program Blog, and publish a monthly FER Newsletter.
