Mission
PTHV advances student success and school improvement by leveraging relationships, research, and a national network of partners to advance evidence-based practices in relational home visits within a comprehensive family engagement strategy.
Vision
To fundamentally change what it means to teach and learn for every student, family, and educator through the transformative power of trusting relationships.
Values
We believe:
- Home visits nurture human dignity and promote equity in educators, families, and students.
- Honoring community wisdom and the assets of parents and families is critical.
- Schools have a responsibility to actively seek relationships with all families.
- People are capable of change and our assumptions can and should be challenged.
- A fundamental shift in the relationship between educators and families is necessary to transform systems, communities, and schools.
