How can I help my community recognize and celebrate bilingualism?

There are many ways you can help your community celebrate the power of bilingualism! Some ideas:

• Host a community event to talk about home language
• Speak with your children about the value of their bilingual skills, so they understand that being bilingual can help them with English and other classes at school
• Share stories. Consider coming to one of our public events to give a testimonial about how being bilingual has helped your child succeed.

Become a parent advocate! Our parent advocates work with us to inform communities about the importance of bilingualism, and they are key to the success of our work.
