For Family Leaders who have already completed a PEAL Family Leadership Institute, or for those family members who have already taken a first step towards Advocacy Leadership, this Serving on Groups workshop Series is an important next step!

This series is designed to support and increase participation of families on decision-making groups.

Do you want to be more involved in a decision-making group but not sure where to begin?

Are you tired of feeling like the token parent representative instead of an active member of a decision-making group?

So many times, we are on committees or in meetings but don’t know what the process is or how to fully participate. This workshop will introduce you to a resource to help you navigate decision-making groups.
