Family Involvement Research List

This reading list gathers research on family involvement, the ways families and schools partner to support a deaf or hard of hearing child's learning. It includes work on why early access to language matters so much, on the family's role in language development, and on how strong family-school partnerships raise student achievement. Use it to ground family engagement plans in evidence, to guide partnership practices, and to show families and colleagues why involving families as full partners makes a lasting difference for children.
