Never stop learning
That’s what parents tell their children. Now we offer ALL families many great opportunities to set an example, and never stop learning themselves with these programs:
Project Ujima

Free dinner provided at some programs, plus childcare, translation services, homework stations for the kids and prizes.
Parent Leadership Professional Development
Classes are designed to prepare families to assume leadership roles at their children’s schools. Topics include how to run and effective meetings, resolve conflict, plan agendas and successfully work in a group. Free classes at Ballard Parent Center, with free childcare.
