Parent
Engagement
An engaged parent has the greatest influence on their children's future.
Florecer Yuma equips and empowers parents in their child's educational journey. We provide a culturally specific approach to de-mystifying the college admissions and financial aid process. Financial literacy workshops allow parents and students to gain a better understanding of college costs and what resources are available to pay for college. Workshops provide financial literacy and guidance on scholarship searches and how to file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
