Written in English and Spanish, this volume explores family engagement policy and practices, showcasing pedagogical, administrative and community-based efforts aimed at countering the traditional hierarchies of power that shape relationships between schools and families from culturally, linguistically and economically minoritized backgrounds.
First bilingual volume on family engagement in multilingual education, providing evidence of the need for schools to work with Latinx families, communities and students, to the benefit of all involved.
This book examines the significance of family engagement policies and practices within culturally and linguistically diverse schooling contexts, through English and Spanish chapters which explore these alianzas familiares/family alliances in a variety of multilingual contexts.
It employs a wide range of perspectives including policy analysis, theoretical discussion, programmatic frameworks and ethnographic portraits to explore contexts across US states including rural and urban communities, Indigenous language communities, special education programs, preschool through high school settings and community education programs.
The chapters offer examples of pedagogical, administrative and community-based efforts aimed at countering the traditional hierarchies of power that shape relationships between schools and families from culturally, linguistically and economically minoritized backgrounds. Expanding the linguistic representation in literature on multilingual education, this volume includes chapters written in Spanish and English and will be of interest to educators, researchers and community advocates.

This book walks the walk by highlighting the work of successful alliances with schools and testifying to the assets brought by multilingual families. Importantly, authors and editors realize these affordances by offering chapters in English and Spanish, inviting conversations among multilingual voices. By focusing on family engagement with K-12 multilingual programs, this book fills a gap and offers promising lessons that can be gleaned when alliances are established and coalitions are formed with families to support children. * Catherine Compton-Lilly, University of South Carolina, Columbia, USA * �Una gran obra bilingüe! Cualquier persona que decida luchar en contra de las múltiples formas en que las familias y alumnos BIPOC son ignorados, deshonrados y violados por parte del sistema escolar tiene que comprometerse a estudiar este libro, a formular un plan en alianza con las familias, y a tomar acción inmediata. * Michael D. Guerrero, Independent Language Advocate, USA *
