As a Community Language Organizer (CLO) of the Speak Your Language Campaign, you will gain deep organizing and advocacy skills, and learn how to communicate core messages about the importance of home language development to other parents, educators, and policymakers. You will be a key leader to move our education system to create more opportunities for home language development and bilingualism.
The training will consist of the latest research on early childhood education, brain development, and the importance of home language development and multilingualism in education. In this one-year program, you will go through this training with a group of about 15-20 parents, and learn how to support each other in your advocacy work.
