In this episode, we’ll explore the critical role parents play in both the back-to-school transition and in fostering a culture of civic engagement. We'll discuss how parental involvement in education can extend to teaching kids about the importance of voting and participating in democracy. We'll cover practical ways parents can integrate discussions about voting into daily life, the impact of parental influence on children’s civic attitudes, and how schools and communities can support this effort. Join us to discover how combining back-to-school efforts with voter education can help shape responsible, engaged future citizens.
