The participation of tw/teens in Jewish youth education and engagement programming is highly impacted by the role their parents play as a supporter, promoter, sharer, social networker, and more. This workshop will: (1) teach the difference between parent involvement and parent engagement and the role each has in youth education and engagement programming, (2) explore a variety of ways that parents can be programmatic partners, even as their own constituency, and (3) begin mapping out ways to implement a parent involvement and parent engagement plan for the 2023-2024 year and explore how engaging and involving parents leads to tangible teen participation results.
