The Partnership for Family Involvement in Education

To encourage businesses, community and religious organizations, and families to support education, the Department of Education administers the Partnership and offers resources, ideas, funding, and conferences relevant to family involvement in education.

Partnership for Family Involvement in Education:
Who We Are and What We Do

Who We Are and What We Do describes the work of PFIE, featuring examples of partner's work in supporting schools and education. The site also includes President Bush's education plan No Child Left Behind and an overview of The White House Office of Faith Based and Community Initiatives.

Community Update

Community Update is a monthly newsletter that reaches over 268,000 parents, educators, and other citizens involved in school improvement efforts across the country. It features "best practices" and model programs from around the nation, focusing on how communities can learn from each other as they improve their schools.

National Parent Information Network

The National Parent Information Network (NPIN) is a project of the ERIC system, which is administered by the National Library of Education. The mission of NPIN is to provide access to research-based information about the process of parenting, and about family involvement in education. The site features a Virtual Library, the Parents AskERIC question-answering service and the PARENTING-L electronic discussion list.
