Through a partnership with school districts in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, corporations and community organizations we offer a series of events consisting of open discussion seminars ranging in topics from: gang awareness, drug use prevention, underage drinking, computer and digital literacy, internet safety to health and financial issues among other topics. At the conclusion of each event up to two home computer systems along with other prizes. By actively engaging the administration from each participating school we ensure the seminar topics are relevant to each audience.
Between 2006, the inaugural year of El Hispano News' "Parents Step Ahead" , and 2007, the program far exceeded our expectations. Reaching nearly 3200 parents in the Dallas/Fort Worth community alone, we awarded 25 home computer systems along with other prizes. With the continued support of school districts, corporate partners and local communities, our goal is to expand the program into other schools with the objective of ensuring every parent is provided with the necessary tools to remain actively involved in the educational and personal development of their children-our nation's precious future.
