Welcoming Newcomer Families Community of Practice
The Federation warmly welcomes educators and professionals to learn, share, and contribute to a new virtual community focused on welcoming, supporting, and partnering with immigrant newcomer students and families.
You can join us on Zoom for virtual workshops and continue to learn, connect and share via our online learning platform. This program is free, thanks to a grant from the MA Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.
