Description: Discover the power of family engagement in education at this interactive workshop. Family engagement is a collaborative partnership between schools, families, and communities to support student success. Everyone plays a role—educators, parents, caregivers, and community members—working together to create meaningful connections. Learn practical strategies to plan impactful events that foster communication, build trust, and strengthen involvement. Join us to explore tools and ideas that turn engagement into action, creating a positive and inclusive environment for all.
Trainer: Florina Ruvio is the Family & Community Engagement Coordinator for IDAEYC. Florina’s primary role is working with communities on early childhood education and care throughout Idaho and better connecting families with resources in their area, particularly within underserved communities. As a HOPE champion through Tufts University, she continues to share her knowledge of the impact of ACEs and the importance of Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs). She also serves on the Board of Breaking Chains Academy of Development, a community-based organization that helps teens obtain their GED/HSE while providing mentorship and recreational activities. Florina believes every child deserves a safe and loving home where they can thrive and have access to quality education. The first five years have lifelong impacts, and she believes it is the responsibility of the community to support families so that every child has a strong start. In her spare time, she enjoys spending quality time with her family and exploring new places, preferably a bookstore or somewhere in the woods near a body of water.
