Engagement Toolkit and Tools

The SIA team is excited to release the new Community Engagement Toolkit. In this update, we are introducing a key framework to see and move deeper across six different levels of community engagement.

This new framework provides practical and proven approaches to community engagement that will guide the SIA team's coaching for SIA grantees over the next five years.

We know there is a great deal of information flowing to schools and districts at this time. We want to emphasize that this isn’t meant to be digested in one bite -- it marks goals, visions, tools, and perspectives we will draw on to support districts and eligible charter schools over time. We hope you find it useful both theoretically and practically. We’ve aimed to include real SIA examples to learn more about where the work done in the first year of implementation fits in the framework. We offer this toolkit at a critical time as districts and schools engage with students, families and communities in new ways to support ongoing engagement.

We look forward to exploring this new framework and toolkit with you. We also want to thank Facilitating Power and Movement Strategy Center for their support in adapting their framework to the Student Investment Account.
