    This document discusses a program aimed at increasing family involvement in youth development programs to improve student retention, academic achievement, and social success. It outlines research questions about whether increasing parent meeting opportunities or having a mentor communicate with parents about student progress would impact involvement. The first cycle found that collaboration between mentors, teachers and families can help engage families, as parents have limited time but mentors can communicate through multiple touchpoints like emails and meetings. The key learnings were that mentors have time to communicate with families, and programs should utilize resources like mentors to maintain frequent communication with parents.
