Through our Parent Partnership program, LaAmistad provides parents the resources
they need to better support their family and community. Along with its partner organization,
Renovacion Conyugal (www.renovacionconyugal.org), LaAmistad hosts parent education
workshops throughout the year on topics ranging from immigration to finances to
mental health and wellness. These workshops help to strengthen, revitalize, and
equip first-generation families to thrive while building and maintaining healthy
family relationships.
Our computer lab, internet, and library are available for use by families in the
LaAmistad community, too.
We encourage new sites to develop a Parent Resource Center. The Parent Resource
Center can be a wealth of information by offering pamphlets and packets on the following
topics relevant to the lives of families involved in both LaAmistad After School

- LaAmistad
