COVID Parent Education Project
​

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, ECFE programs across the state have been facing a variety of challenges including:
  • Staffing cuts and/or shortages.
  • Lost space.
  • Technology barriers.
  • Low participation numbers.
  • Gap between needs of families and resources available.
 
The goal of the MNAFEE/Minnesota Department Education Parent Education Project is to support and strengthen parenting education statewide by offering pre-recorded webinars or podcasts developed by licensed parenting educators on topics relevant to parenting during the pandemic and beyond.
