Get Ready to Recognize Parent Leaders

2018 Parent Recognition Month Nomination Form

Each year, Minnesota Communities Caring for Children recognize parents, caretakers, and professionals across Minnesota for building on the strengths of families. The voices of parents help shape the lives of communities, and can direct programs and policies that impact them, so this is our way of honoring these voices. We are pleased to host a recognition event on Thursday, February 22, 2018 in the Vault Room at the State Capitol.

Parent Leadership is possible when parents gain knowledge and skills and are empowered to function in meaningful leadership roles. Nominations are open to parents, grandparents, kinship care providers, foster parents, and others in a parenting role with personal experience in using resources and/or services to strengthen their family.

Don’t miss the chance to be a part of Parent Leadership Month in Minnesota. Ways to participate include:

• Allow MCCC to use your organization’s name as a co-host of the event; no financial contribution necessary
• Attend the Parent Leadership Month event on February 22nd
• Nominate a Parent Leader for the 2018 Parent Leader Award being presented by Prevent Child Abuse Minnesota and Minnesota Communities Caring for Children.
