"Family-School-Community Partnering (FSCP) is a multi-dimensional process in which schools, families, and communities work together to ensure a child's academic, social, and emotional success. In this new edition, the authors evaluate advances to the model and integrate community support. The text opens by covering historical legislative, empirical, and theoretical underpinnings and updates. Practical strategies are discussed to develop, deliver, and evaluate an integrated system of family, school, and community support that improves student outcomes. Addendums to chapters three and four detail specific approaches and associated resources to advance FSCP from infancy through adulthood. In Section Two, current researchers and practitioners in the field consider how to enhance collaborative partnerships with military, migrant/refugee, and rural communities and support gender identity and developmental disability. The book concludes with four fictional case stories designed to promote facilitated conversations to integrate FSCP processes and practices introduced throughout the text. School psychologists, school counsellors, educators and educators will learn how to strategically implement this partnering in all levels of schooling"-- Provided by publisher.
