Message from the Office for Family Engagement and Advocacy

Dear Parents,

Community and Citywide Education Councils have had a busy school year,
improving education for children and providing support to the parents in their districts. This Web site should give you all the information you need about the activities and responsibilities of New York City's CECs.

We hope you will consider attending your district's CEC meeting or becoming involved as a council member. Some councils have vacancies, so if you're interested in becoming a CEC member, fill out an application today.

To contact a council office directly, click here for a list of CEC phone numbers and e-mail addresses.

The Office for Family Engagement and Advocacy is here to support all parents, whether you are already active in your district, an emerging parent leader, or simply looking for answers to questions about your child's school.

Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.  Thank you for your ongoing work on behalf of our City's children.

Sincerely,

Jacqui Lipson
Community Education Councils Administrative Coordinator
